I thought last weeks discussion was very interesting. The thing that amazed me were the atolls and how they were formed. I realized that these atolls were old volcanoes that were islands, but the coral grew around the volcano, causing it to sink f...
Use the space below to reflect on our latest class session... and introduction to the ins & outs of coral reef formation.
The slide set we used to facilitate our chat can be viewed here: (soon)
In the space below, tell what connections you made ...
yes, and yes... and also simply trap it within a structure they can close. think: mollusks.
I understand now. That helps.
To an extent. Does this mean they find water to make gills efficient, or does it mean they produce a saliva or water based substance to clear up their needs?
Whoa. That's sick to think algae is in all those common everyday things Americans eat. Didn't he also say it was in gum. Or am I totally making that up? I'll have to check up on that.
You did an awesome job looking up all those definitions. I'm a visual learner too, so when I was making my post. I opened up my Marine Biology book. I have to see it in person, or in pictures to understand something. One thing I think we all didn'...
Also, I have a quick question. In this picture, is this considered a tide pool? I am confused because it is not in an enclosed pool but it still has to go through the different levels of high-tide and low-tide.
So I love chocolate milk and pudding so this is a cool way to connect the ocean and the foods we eat to people like me who are not to much of sea food fans. I never would have guessed but i would have never really thought about it either.
Hey this is what mine is about. There are the four different levels and that pretty much determines how much sun and water each are exposed to, i think.
I, being the procrastinator, am just starting to do this assignment (you know the one that is due in just a couple of hours). Therefore, I am doing this two weeks after the lesson and the thing that stuck with me the most was the tide pools. The p...
Before last class period I knew nothing about oceanic zones, I learned that there are two main oceanic zones called the pelagic and the Benthic zones both of which are seperated into smaller zones within them. I also learned that light penetrates ...
Hmmmm..... I see it here just fine.
Nicely done.
What happened to my reply? When you click on Zones & Trophic levels and then go to the last page, you don't see mine at all, but if you go over to the Latest Activity and hit the "replied" link, you can see it.
During class, we began to talk about seaweed. When Mr. Nash asked if we knew what it felt like, I hadn't, because I'd never really seen seaweed in real life. I've been to an ocean and all, but never been to a spot that wasn't a beach where tons of...
Remember... the trophic pyramid is real. It is just that above coral reefs... it seems to be "inverted." Of course, this cannot be. There is simply no way to consume more than is produced. Thus, we spoke of the trophic pyramid on a coral reef as b...
Again... excellent clarification of some possible confusion between supralittoral... and littoral.
Apparent inverted trophic pyramid... apparent. It really cannot be inverted. In fact, this is related to the Law of Conservation of Mass/Energy.
