The Process
Aquatic Animal Expert | Aquatic Plant Expert | Coral Expert
Your research team will consist of three parts:
1. Aquatic Animal Expert : You are the member of your team who needs to find out what
things are endangering the animals that live in the oceans. It
is up to you to find out what is killing the animals and come up with
ways to stop this from happening.

2. Aquatic Plant Expert: It is your job to find out everything you
can
about the plants that live in the ocean. Remember that plants are
every where in the ocean and are food for many animals.
What happens to plants influences all of the ocean.
You need to find out what things are hurting the plants
and find a way to stop it.

3. Coral Expert: Coral is really cool. It is a small ocean animal but has many
of the same things that plants have. As the coral expert it is up to you to find out
what pollution and human actions are hurting coral. There is nothing else like coral. It is important for you to find a way to save the coral and write a plan to stop pollution.
