Challenges of the Sea• Every habitat has its own unique set of characteristics and
presents special challenges to the organisms that live there.

SALINITY• Diffusion – substances go from high to low
concentration

SALINITY
• Osmosis – diffusion of water across a membrane

REGULATION OF SALT AND WATER BALANCE• Osmoconformer
s• Osmoregulators

REGULATION OF SALT AND WATER BALANCE• Osmoregulators
• Gill pumps• Salt glands • Rectal glands• Rigid cell walls• Other solutes

TEMPERATURE• Metabolic reactions proceed faster at high temperatures
(2x faster with a 10oC increase in temperature)• Marine organisms live in narrow temperature ranges

TEMPERATURE
• Ectotherms (poikilotherms)– Sharks– Fish– Shellfish– Plankton – Reptiles
• Endotherms (homeotherms)– Mammals– Birds– Some tuna

REPRODUCTION• Asexual strategies– Clones– Fission – Budding
• Sexual strategies– Broadcast spawning– Many young– Few young– Hermaphrodites

DIVERSITY OF LIFE• FIVE KINGDOMS– Animalia
• Multi-cell, move, heterotrophs
– Plantae• Multi-cell, can’t
move, autotrophs
– Fungi• Multi-cell, can’t
move, heterotrophs
– Protista• Single cell, complex
– Monera• Single cell, simple
