Symbiosis or “Living Together”
Toward the end of chapter 2, Osha Davidson describes the long-term relationships we discover between living organisms, symbiosis, as a “kind of marriage.” As he further states, “Not all marriages are made in heaven, and neither are all symbiotic relationships” (17). Marriage is an apt metaphor for the “union” of two different creatures that, in some scenarios, cannot survive without the other. Parasitism is, indeed, a marriage that is NOT made in heaven – but rather, more like the marriage betwe… Continue

Antarctica Glacier Retreat Creates New Carbon Dioxide Store; Has Beneficial Impact On Climate Change
Large blooms of tiny marine plants called phytoplankton are flourishing in areas of open water left exposed by the recent and rapid melting of ice shelves and glaciers around the Antarctic Peninsula. This remarkable colonization is having a beneficial impact on climate change. As the blooms die back phytoplankton sinks to the sea-bed where it can store carbon for thousands or millions of years.Why Do Animals, Especially Males, Have So Many Different Colors?
Why do so many animal species -- including fish, birds and insects -- display such rich diversity in coloration and other traits? New research offers an answer.Bizarre Lives Of Bone-eating Worms
Female Osedax marine worms feast on submerged bones via a complex relationship with symbiotic bacteria, and they are turning out to be far more diverse and widespread than scientists expected. Californian researchers have found that up to twelve further distinct evolutionary lineages exist beyond the five species already described. The new findings about these beautiful sea creatures with unusual sexual and digestive habits are published in a new study.Seafloor Fossils Provide Clues To Climate Change
Deep under the sea, a fossil the size of a sand grain is nestled among a billion of its closest dead relatives. Known as foraminifera, these complex little shells of calcium carbonate can tell you the sea level, temperature, and ocean conditions of Earth millions of years ago. That is, if you know what to look for.Boosting Coastal Economics With Crustacean Molting On Demand
Researchers are close to unraveling intricate cellular pathways that control molting in blue crabs. The discoveries could revolutionize the soft-shell crab industry, generating new jobs and additional profits for the US fishing industry along the coastal Southeast.© 2009 Created by Sean Nash

My cousin actually got me into the Flobots about 3 months ago, but now they're one of my favorites.
Hey if I have that paper signed for Marine about the laptops or whatever can I drop it off by your house later tonight?
