Texas Aquatic Science Chapter 5 Video Introduction

(Click on arrow above to play video)

Aquatic habitats are aquatic communities in which complex interactions take place among populations and individual organisms as they compete for limited resources in an interdependent web of relationships. What do you need to survive? You need air to breathe, clean water to drink, food to eat, and shelter to protect you from the elements. These are basic survival needs for humans. For aquatic organisms to survive, they must be able to meet all of their survival needs just as you do.– Texas Aquatic Science Chapter 5: From Sun to Sunfish
