Introduction

Each team will be representing either SeaWorld Orlando, San Antonio or San Diego for the opportunity to win a $50,000 grant for extended field research. Before beginning your assignment, your team needs to get a refresher about what marine biology is and why it is important.

What is Marine Biology?

Marine biology is the study of life in the oceans.

Why should Marine Biology be studied?

We need to understand the marine environment, which helps support life on this planet, yet only five percent of the oceans have been explored.
