Question

The ocean is a three- dimensional environment. Explain how this kind of living space impacts diverse forms of marine life.

Answer 1

The ocean is a three-dimensional environment and this allows it to be the environment with the greatest biodiversity in the world, because it allows different organisms to be able to live at different depths and related environmental factors.

With that, we can affirm that in the ocean there is life that would only be able to stay alive in shallower waters, however the bottom of the ocean is rich in diversity of animal and plant life, unknown even to human beings.

Answer 2

An international team of developers created a 3 dimensional map to study the extremely diverse environment of marine life.  The map is intended for conservationists, biologists, government officials, and others who make better decisions about ocean preservation and the many endangered species that live in the ocean

Since there are millions of species that survive in different depths of the ocean, the map can offer up information about why marine animals choose to live in a specific location.  Scientists will better be able to study the interaction between warm and cold waters, or oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor regions.
