    Concepts covered in this series include:

    1.   REALM  OF  THE  SEA:    the  ocean  isI
    introduced as a habitat for a variety of
    organisms.     Simple  geology,  the  prop-
    erties of seawater,  and our relationshipI
    with the sea are defined.

    2.   PLANTS  OF THE  SEA AND  SHORE:   the3
    importance of plants as the source of
    life introduces a basic presentation of
    photosynthesis.     Several  varieties  of
    marine vegetation are surveyed, includingI
    both  plankton  and  larger  plants.    The
    interdependence of species is illustrated
    by the study of a short food chain.
    3.  BALANCE OF NATURE:   the concepts of
    community  and  ecosystem are  explored  asI
    they relate to the marine environment.
    Survival mechanisms are surveyed in terms
    of offensive and defensive weapons.   Food
    chains and food webs lead into a discus-I
    sion of balanced marine ecosystems and
    the ways in which people can upset them.3

    of the shell-bearing mollusks due to
