Marine Biology

How does an octopus change colors? How does a sea star see where it is going?

Students discover the water world of jellyfish, sea horses, sharks, and other ocean creatures. They learn about the characteristics of several groups of marine vertebrates and invertebrates by seeing and touching museum specimens. Focus is on the adaptations, behaviors, habitats, and ecological importance of many marine animals.

This program supports Colorado Model Content Standards for Science 3.
