Medicine from the Sea Derek Bunkofske Conservation Ecology ENVS 201 Charles Cole Sea Changes: Medicine from the Sea This was truly an amazing video that really made me realize just how amazing this planet really is‚ along with the special human beings that inhabit it. I know that sounds a little corny‚ but I don’t really know any other way of putting it. So many questions start to creep into my head after seeing something so incredible come from something that has been on this earth for

Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Background of the Study: For the past years‚ we‚ the proponents‚ noticed that the prices of products sold on stores keeps on increasing due to the unstable price of oil. We all know that life becomes harder and harder‚ and the products of our prime commodities and bills that we need to pay keeps on increasing. We also know that in our time today‚ we have to save money for our near future and for emergency cases. There are some ways to avoid spending too much money.

makes a protists a protists is the fact that it cannot be placed into any of the other kingdoms physically or genetically. For instance‚ the plant-like protists aren’t enough like plants to be one. The characteristic that makes algal protists (algae) plant like is the ability to do photosynthesis. Similar to plants‚ plant-like protists have __chloroplasts__ that contain the pigment chlorophyll‚ which collects and converts light into energy. In addition to green‚ algal protists may be red‚ brown

beat to produce a constant current of water‚ allowing particles to be filtered by fine setae on the thoracic legs. The particles are then transferred to their mouth groove to be ingested. D. magna typically feed on planktonic algae (Ebert‚ 2005). The following experiment uses algae to test what affects the feeding rate of D. magna. The rate of filtration is dependent on multiple factors including temperature‚ food density‚ body size‚ and water pH.

concentration of nutrients‚ the giant kelp can grow up to two feet per day and over 100 feet in it’s lifetime. Although they can only live for about six years‚ the giant kelp is the largest alga in the ocean. Kelp forests consist of two types of algae: giant and bull. Giant kelp can live for several years‚ while bull kelp can only survive for one. Both types of kelp have a two-stage life cycle. In the earliest part of their lives‚ they exist as spores‚ along with millions of their brothers and

Eutrophication and health 40 preface Eutrophication and health Algal blooms‚ “red tides”‚ “green tides”‚ fish kills‚ inedible shellfish‚ blue algae and public health threats. What is the common link ? The answer is‚ EUTROPHICATION: a complex process which occurs both in fresh and marine waters‚ where excessive development of certain types of algae disturbs the aquatic ecosystems and becomes a threat for animal and human health. The primary cause of eutrophication is an excessive concentration
