Uncovering Environment-Driven Life Phenomena Using Marine Organisms

Since I was a child, I have loved spending time by the sea, watching the ocean and the creatures that live there.
The more I observed them, the more I wondered how they manage to live so well while being constantly affected by changes in weather, seasons, temperature, and light.
We humans often live in controlled environments, but nature may still have many lessons to teach us about how to survive and adapt.
Through basic biology, I hope to better understand the relationship between living organisms and their environment.
