    Description
    This course provides an introduction to the different types of life in the ocean including things that swim, drift, or are associated with the seafloor. Students will learn about the process of doing science, where to find different types of marine life, and the reproductive strategies and characteristics associated with life in the ocean. We will look at different locations and communities within the ocean from the beach to the deep waters and explore the connections between what happens on land and life in the sea.
