Challenges in the Field of Marine Biology No matter what science oriented profession one chooses to pursue‚ education is the undisputed key to success and the field of marine biology is no exception. While a bachelor’s degree qualifies you for an entry level position‚ it is most likely insufficient if you have your sights set on a career involving independent research or field work. The majority of people working within the field of marine biology with only a bachelor’s degree‚ are for the

Marine biology is more than the scientific study of marine life. Marine biology is the study of marine organisms‚ their behaviors‚ and interactions with the environment. Marine biologists study oceanography and the associated fields of chemical‚ physical‚ and geological oceanography. Marine biologists are also able to specialize in large aquatic animals‚ all the way down to microscopic and minuscule organisms. Anything else in between‚ marine biologists are able to study. Marine biology is known

Marine biology I would be an extremely happy man if I could do what I love for the rest of my life.With the many issues going on in our waters such as overfishing‚ pollution‚ and global warming. Marine biologists work hard day in and out to put an end to these terrible things that occur more often that one thinks. Did u know Water covers the 71 percent of the earth. As a kid must of my summers were spent at my family’s lake house and I loved every minute of it. I saw a lot of terrible things

Marine Biology is the scientific study of organisms that are dependent on water. Marine Biology is an interesting topic to many people because of the exotic animals you get to work with. A career in Marine Biology can be dangerous because of the wild animals‚ but at the same time it can be fun. It takes time‚ training‚ and intelligence to succeed in the career. In order to make it in this Biology field you must complete a college work in oceanography‚ marine biology‚ or conservation. You will

A. Metabolism - The process by which a living organism takes energy from its surroundings and uses it to sustain itself‚ develop and grow B. Photosynthesis - The process by which an organism uses the energy from the sun to produce its own food C. Autotrophs - Organisms that are able to produce their own food D. Heterotrophs - Organisms that cannot make their own food and must obtain it from other organisms E. Respiration - The process by which food is converted into useable energy for

from the algae stimulate a virus that causes the tumors. Scientists have been trying to understand the pathology of these tumors. The tumors were most commonly located on the turtle’s heads‚ eyes‚ and flippers. According to Celia Smith‚ UH Mānoa Marine Biology Professor‚ “Many hypotheses were offered to explain the tumors‚ but we kept coming back to the observation that urban reefs—those near dense populations—are the sites with greater numbers of sick turtles. We had no mechanism for this disease”

Marine Biology The field of marine biology‚ the study of organisms within their environment of an ocean‚ lake‚ or river‚ has a very broad range of occupations. Marine biologists try to discover how organisms grow and develop‚ how they get food‚ how their bodies function‚ and how their life relations correspond to other organisms. They also use laboratory experiments to increase knowledge of human life processes. This is a great career for me to enter because there are so many opportunities to

A marine biologist examines the functions of all living organisms in the sea and estuaries. They are able to conduct multiple experiments and can choose to specialise in various sizes of marine life. I am interested in becoming a marine biologist because sea creatures and science are two of my passions‚ especially conducting experiments to determine solutions for animal sicknesses. There are many aspects involved in being a marine biologist‚ employees are always using numerical and statistical skills
