Importance of marine life
Planet Earth, unlike other known stars, is made up of water. Three-quarters of the Earth is water, oceans and seas form the most extensive set of water in our world. Although we are not aware of the importance of the oceans carry out a wide range of functions that allow and promote the existence of all the species that inhabit the planet.
The sea is the place in which life appeared and contains the essence of the Earth, It is source of renewable and non-renewable resources, also provides much of the food of the world. Under the sea, there is a countless fauna. All kinds of animals that still not been cataloge and that year after year they find more new species. Ocean waters contain within millions of fish, shellfish, mammals and birds that fly over the surface to forage.
Marine life is a resource of extensive, providing food, medicine, and raw materials, as well as helping to support reconstruction and tourism all over the world. In addition, marine life helps determine the nature of our planet. Marine organisms produce much of the oxygen we breathe, this includes the importance of phytoplankton which is the original maintainer of the presence of the oxygen in the atmosphere.
The great biodiversity of the ocean depends on microscopic organisms, the phytoplankton. Phytoplankton is found in high concentrations in the ocean and carries out photosynthesis to get their nutrients. So these organisms capture CO2, carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas that accelerates global warming.
