Good day! This is your one-stop for all the web activity that you'll be doing during our Oceanography Unit. Sometimes you will be doing the job of Marine Biologist, and sometimes you'll be acting more like an Oceanographer. Do a little research and find out what each of those jobs are. Complete the Oceanography Jobs page in your Oceanography Log.

(Don't be confused by the directions on the individual websites. You are only 'dropping in' to receive information. Your instructions will come from your Oceanography Log and from class.)
Unidentified animals
Your job is to identify at the three unidentified animals that you have been assigned and give the following information for each:
--> what zone each animal came from
--> possible prey (must live in the same zone)
--> possible predators (must live in the same zone)
--> adaptations (how their physical traits and behaviors allow them to survive in their zone)
***Don't Google your animal! The purpose of this activity is to see how closely you can assess where your creatures might live based on what you're learning.***
FIRST, you need to learn about the zones:
