Competition in the Saltwater BIome

Competition in the Saltwater Biome

Verania Del Risco

Entry #2

So I've embarked my journey by sailing out into the sea with a group of marine researchers. They were telling me about different kinds of competition between the organisms. For example, sharks compete for food. Most sharks eat the same kind of food so they will have to "compete" with each other to get it. Another example are plants competing for sunlight. The plants placement results in how much sunlight they could get. Barnacles are also an example of competition. Once they attach themselves to anything, they will most likely not move or detach themselves, so others will have to find another space.
