Marine Biology is the scientific study of organisms that inhabit the oceans and other saltwater environments. This field encompasses a wide range of topics, including the behavior, physiology, ecology, and evolution of marine life, as well as their interactions with each other and their environments. Marine biologists research various forms of life, from microscopic plankton to large marine mammals, and explore ecosystems such as coral reefs, seagrass beds, and oceanic trenches. The field also examines the impact of human activities, such as fishing, pollution, and climate change, on marine species and ecosystems. Ultimately, marine biology aims to enhance our understanding of the biological diversity in the ocean and contribute to the conservation and sustainable management of marine resources.
