The term for a class that means two lives is "amphibian." Amphibians are vertebrate animals that can live both in water (during their early stages of life) and on land as adults.
Tide pools are typically found in the intertidal zones of coastal regions, where the ocean meets the land. This biome is known as the coastal biome or intertidal zone. Tide pools are unique habitats that experience regular changes in water levels due to the tides.
The place where an organism lives is called a habitat.
Vernal pools has three syllables.
It is difficult to provide an exact number of vernal pools that are left, as they are constantly changing due to natural events and human activities. However, vernal pools are considered to be a threatened habitat, with many having been lost due to urban development, agriculture, and other human impacts. Efforts are being made to conserve and protect remaining vernal pools.

San Diego fairy shrimp are threatened by habitat loss, altered hydrology of their habitat and off-highway vehicle activity. They are listed as Endangered by the US Fish and Wildlife Service. By 1998, their habitat (vernal pools) was reduced to less than five percent of its historical extent (USFWS 1998). Remaining vernal pools are threatened by continuted urban development, increases or decreases in water flow into the pools, and physical destruction of habitat by vehicles. San Diego fairy shrimp occur in vernal pools in mesas from Northern Baja California through Orange County; Most of the historical vernal pool habitat was converted to residential development.

Fairy shrimp live in vernal pools. They are approximately one inch long, and related to lobsters. They swim upside down so they can eat the algae on the water's surface.
