What are the different methods that marine animals use to obtain food

Biology
1 answer:
Nitella [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Marine mammals use sound in a variety of ways while feeding. One well-known example is echolocation, in which animals produce short pulses of sounds that are reflected back when they strike an object.

Deposit feeders pass sand, mud, water or sediment into their mouths

Suspension feeders catch food or organic material from the water using tentacles or spiny arms

Filter feeders; capture food that is suspended in the water by creating a current within them for the water to flow through.

Predators actively seek out their prey items. In the ocean, some predators can be adapted to blend in with the surrounding area and wait for a prey item to pass by or they can be adapted to move quickly to chase down prey.

Which of the following is NOT a source of dissolved oxygen in the water?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

A. humans going underwater and exhaling

Explanation:

The dissolved oxygen in water refers to the amount of oxygen that is found in water. However, there are various ways that oxygen dissolves in a body of water, these includes;

- Photosynthesis of aquatic plants: Oxygen is the waste product of the photosynthetic process carried out by green plants. Hence, when aquatic plants undergo photosynthesis, oxygen from them tend to dissolve into water.

- Diffusion from the atmosphere: Oxygen from air or atmosphere also dissolves in water

- aeration as water moves over rocks and debris, and from wind and waves

However, humans do not exhale oxygen but carbon dioxide, hence, it is not a source of dissolved oxygen
