The marine environment supplies many kinds of habitats that support life.
Marine Habitats consist of coastal and open-ocean habitats.
Coastal habitats are found in the area that extends from as far as the tide comes in on the shoreline out to the edge of the continental shelf (the edge of a continent that lies under the ocean). Most marine life is found in coastal habitats.
Open ocean habitats are found in the deep ocean beyond the edge of the continental shelf.
Phytoplanktons are the primary producers in the oceans and form the general foundation of the ocean food chain.
Marine species range in size from microscopic like phytoplankton to a huge creatures like the blue whale, the largest known animal.
