  1. Protists are usually one-celled microorganisms. They include algae ( autotrophs which make their own food) and protozoans ( heterotrophs which eat the algae for food). In recent years, researchers have discovered many protists are mixotrophs, which can function in both modes. Marine protists are defined by their habitat as protists that live in ...

  2. Marine microbiome. Marine animal host-microbiome relationship. Relationships are generally thought to exist in a symbiotic state, and are normally exposed to environmental and animal-specific factors that may cause natural variations. Some events may change the relationship into a functioning but altered symbiotic state, whereas extreme stress ...

  4. Marine prokaryotes are responsible for significant levels of the photosynthesis that occurs in the ocean, as well as significant cycling of carbon and other nutrients. Prokaryotes live throughout the biosphere. In 2018 it was estimated the total biomass of all prokaryotes on the planet was equivalent to 77 billion tonnes of carbon (77 Gt C ...

  5. Introduction. Marine animals are the icons of life in the oceans. They represent about two million species (Mora et al., 2011) and include a wide range of body designs, from the highly simplistic sponges lacking true tissues and organs to the complex vertebrates containing specialized tissues and organs, such as fish and marine mammals, with some iconic representatives presented in F igure 1.

  7. Feb 28, 2022 · Abstract. Diversity within marine microbiomes spans the three domains of life: microbial eukaryotes (i.e., protists), bacteria, and archaea. Although protists were the first microbes observed by microscopy, it took the advent of molecular techniques to begin to resolve their complex and reticulate evolutionary history.
