Marine biology

My field of study is Marine Biology. I have been passionate about this subject since I was a little girl when my father owned a fishing boat for the first ten years of my life. I spent the majority of my time until I was a teenager exploring the water in the Northumberland Strait and the critters within it. Subsequently during my high school studies I focused primarily on science courses such as biology, chemistry, and geology as they were what I was most interested. I hope that one day I will achieve

Post-Secondary Plan The career path that I chose is zoologist and wildlife biologists. I chose this because I became interested in marine biology when a I was younger. I would always love to watch shark movies. I was obsessed with sharks and would always wish I could swim with them. Their intelligence is what caught my attention. A great white shark is my favorite species. As a child I would always love to go outside and explore. I would always look to see if I would see different types of

Annotation: The purpose of this experiment was to observe the light that the Tomopteris emits. They collected Tomopteris from Monterey Bay off the coast of California. They then stimulated the Tomopteris to produce light so that they could observe the light that it produced. The researchers took photos and measured the amount

Program of Study Paper BY Elaina Smith What do you wanna be when you're older ? When you're in highschool most people take a class based one what they wanna be. I wanna be a Marine Biologist so when i’m in highschool I will take one of the classes in Veterinary, and Animal science. Veterinary and Animal science is designed for many young students interested in becoming a young veterinarian, or working on or with different types of animals. Heritage high school provides

Oceanic plastic pollution is a major issue within the modern study of marine biology. The main focus of many studies about oceanic pollution are within the Pacific Ocean. The Pacific Ocean holds much of the plastic pollution due to its location near costal countries along with being the main transportation for many exported goods. This topic has sparked interest because of the rapid growth of this problem will affect many within one’s life time along with changing oceanic life. Oceanic plastic pollution

program. Firstly, I would gain much knowledge and many learning experiences from participating in this program. I am applying to the Summer@Brown program to take a course in Marine Biology. By taking this course from a prestigious college, with an experienced professor, I would improve my knowledge of the subject of Marine Biology and take steps to find a career in the subject. It would also provide me with insight into the world of college academics, which would help me in several years when I am a

My personal goal in my educational career is to achieve a major in Genetics and a minor in Marine Biology. To strive closer to accomplishing this goal, I am currently enrolled in my high school’s Career and Technical Education (CTE) of Marine Biology. Over the past three years, I have been working on my own research project, Survival and Growth Performance of Crassostrea virginica in the NYC Harbor; comparing two types of spawning methods of the Eastern Oyster, which I presented at the New York City

who pursues a career in such subject will want to be as successful as they can be. And the success all starts within the individual's education. An average student will decide on becoming a marine biologist as they are still in high school. If so he/she should be interested in taking basic classes such as biology, chemistry, Earth science, math, and other science of research providing classes. (A94) To enhance the education level from there he/she should take other basic sciences at a college level

I find science and engineering to be fascinating, specifically areas of biology such as marine biology and oceanography as well as environmental science. My interest in science was sparked by a project I did in Kindergarten on Blue Whales. When I was in second grade I had to research an animal and I chose a dolphin, which immediately became my favorite animal. I wanted to continue research on dolphins and whales outside of school. Unlike most kids that age, I would find time between dance and soccer

In five years I want to be in my second to last year of college, hopefully working towards a masters in marine biology, have an internship or even a paying job, living my life off campus. To get to this position I recently just finished applying for FAFSA, am applying currently to the colleges who major in marine biology or biology, going to visit colleges of my interest all over the U.S., and am looking for scholarships and grants that apply to me. I am hoping to be able to have the opportunity
