if you mean organisms in the ocean, the water provides oxygen and an osmotically stable environment for them (meaning stable levels of salinity). if you mean land organisms, the ocean is responsible for a lot of our food, wind patterns, global temperature, and climate. if you need like ecosystem services, i would say temperature regulation is the biggest one. and the ocean is home to the greatest number of organisms when compared to other biomes.
