Extreme Life of the Sea (Lecture) | HHMI BioInteractive
In this lecture, explore how the threat to biodiversity in the ocean differs from the threats on the land.
Ocean biodiversity is also threatened by human activities. But because the ocean is huge and has highly diverse environments, marine organisms appear to be more resilient than land animals when threatened by extinction and can bounce back with modest conservation efforts.
