Very small organisms in the ocean?
bacteria
What is the main organisms in the ocean that perform photosynthesis?
those are algae organisms. They are major in the sea.
What is the area with the most organisms?
The area with the most organisms is the ocean. The ocean covers 71% of the earth's surface and is home to millions of different species of organisms. Below is a list of the major types of organisms found in the ocean: Fish Crustaceans Mollusks Echinoderms Marine mammals Marine reptiles Marine birds Marine plantsThe ocean is a diverse and vibrant ecosystem, and it is estimated that there are still millions of undiscovered species living in the depths of the ocean.
What decomposers live in ponds?
Bacteria and fungi are the decomposers that you will find living in ponds. These organisms. These decomposers can be found living in the soil under the water and in mud surrounding the perimeter of the pond.
What is the earliest group or living organisms on earth?
The archeobacteria. Very primitive bacteria that live in extreme conditions - hot springs, thermal vents on the ocean floor, extremely salty saline pools and even in Antarctic ice
What happens to many of the dead ocean organisms?
Many dead ocean organisms sink to the ocean floor and become part of the sediment. There, they can be broken down by bacteria and other decomposers, or may become fossilized over time. Some dead organisms may also be consumed by scavengers and other organisms in the food chain.
What organisms can you list that don't depend on photosynthetic organisms for their food either directly or indirectly?
The living thing that doesnt rely on photosynthesis are bacteria that lives under the ocean where there are no light.
What category does bacteria fall into?
Bacteria are classified in Kingdom Monera. They are single-celled organisms. Bacteria come in two main groups - ones that require oxygen, called aerobic bacteria, and ones that do not require oxygen, called anaerobic. Bacteria have been found in every part of the earth, from hot springs at the very bottom of the ocean to glaciers in the antarctic. There may even be evidence of fossil bacteria from rocks on Mars!
What did the earth look like a billion years ago?
A billion years ago more of Earth's surface was covered by ocean than today and the continents were smaller and made of bare rock and sediment. There was no life on land and only single-celled organisms existed in the ocean. Some coastal areas had stromatolites, colonies of bacteria that built concretions of limestone.
What are bioluminescence?
Bioluminescent organisms are those that produce light. There are bioluminescent bacteria that live in the ocean like those in the genera Vibrio and Photomicrobium.
What carries most of the photosynthesis on earth?
Most of Earth's photosynthesis is carried out in the ocean by organisms in the Protist Kingdom: seaweed, diatoms, etc.
What phylum contains organisms that filter the ocean?
it contains organisms such as bacteria and other diseases. phylum is very dangerous to humans if phylum touches you then you have 1 hour to clean it off or you will die.
