	Marine biology - Open Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Given that in biology many phyla, families and genera have some species that live in the sea and others that live on land, marine biology deals with those species in which life is spent only (or mainly) in the water, thus its classification is based on the environment rather than on taxonomy.
		Marine biology covers a great deal, from the microscopic plankton, including femtoplankton as small as 0.02 micrometers, and together with phytoplankton, hugely important as the primary producers of the sea, to the huge cetaceans (or whales) which reach up to a reported 33 meters (109 feet) in length.
		The habitats included by investigation in marine biology include everything from the tiny layers of surface water in which organisms and abiotic items may be trapped in surface tension between the ocean and atmosphere, to the depths of the abyssal trenches, sometimes 10,000 meters or more beneath the surface of the ocean.

		Habitat, biology, and fisheries: Adults in the sea, Juveniles and postlarvae in low salinity lagoons and estuaries; the most abundant penaeid on the south and southwest coasts, and in the estuaries of these coasts; on mud, and mud and sand down to depths of 30 m.
		Habitat, biology, and fisheries: Juveniles and adults in highly saline lagoons and estuaries in northwest and north coasts; abundant at depths of 6 to 7 m in Palk Bay close to shore on a bottom of dead shell, mud, and sand.
		Habitat, biology, and fisheries: Postlarvae and Juveniles in estuaries, adults in the sea; abundant in low salinity lagoons like Nanthikadal, Kokkilai, and Nayaru on the northeast coast; relatively uncommon in high salinity lagoons; quite abundant on mud and a mixture of sand and mud, down to depths of 20 m in the sea.

	The Porpoise Page
		Although the origin of modern cetaceans is not fully understood, it is believed that terrestrial animals, of the Suborder Mesonychia, may have given rise to modern cetaceans, as they colonized the sea in the Paleocene, roughly 60 million years ago.
		Members of the Suborder Mysteceti, which include the Rorqual and Right Whales, posses fine baleen plates which are used to filter food from the water column.
		In contrast, members of the Suborder Odontoceti, which include dolphins and porpoises, are referred to as the "toothed whales" because they posses teeth, rather than baleen.

	Dust Mite Allergens (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Some knowledge of the biology of house dust mites is essential to understand the basis of the recommendations for reducing mites and mite allergens in homes and to appreciate the difficulty of eliminating house dust mites and mite allergens from homes.
		Any explanation of the biology of house dust mites cannot be complete without an overview of their classification and relationship to other arthropods, a discussion of commonly found species in both the environment and in household dust, and an examination of their prevalence, life cycle, and the roles humidity and temperature play in their development.

	biology - Even-toed ungulate
		By the Late Eocene (46 million years ago), the three modern suborders had already developed: Suina (the pig group); Tylopoda (the camel group); and Ruminantia (the goat and cattle group).
		Not only are their digestive systems highly developed, they have also evolved the habit of chewing cud: regurgitating part-digested food to chew it again and extract the maximum possible benefit from it.
		Lastly a group of artiodactyls, which molecular biology suggests were most closely related to Hippopotamidae, returned to the sea to become whales.

		Suborder Sauria class is divided into three subclasses, then into four Orders, five Suborders and then into the Genus and Species categories.
		This Suborder is referred to as the Sauria or Lacertilia Suborder and contains up to 25 Families which includes the division of the Iquanidae as an additional 8 Families.
		Formerly this Suborder was included with the Sauria (Lizards), but now is being recognized as members of their own Suborder.

	Coccidia of the World
		The largest subgroup of the phylum is the suborder Eimeriorina Leger, 1911, which contains organisms collectively referred to as the coccidia (Levine et al., 1980).
		By far, the largest family in the suborder, Eimeriidae Minchin, 1903, with 17 genera and ~1700 species (this database) is the group that we are working to resolve on a global scale.
		This complexity resulted in various stages of the same coccidian species being described as different species, or even placed in different higher taxa (genera to suborders), before their basic life history was understood.

		Marine Biologists study how the ocean currents and tides affect ocean life, and the effect of the multitudes of other oceanic factors on their growth, distribution and well being.
		In recent times, marine biologists are trying to complete the mapping of underwater species with the help of modern techniques, which could help in exploring the deepest oceanic depressions in which it is supposed that new species could be found, eventually of potential great interest also for the theories on evolution.

		To be precise, few books on the local invertebrate fauna, particularly insects, were written in Arabic, humbly illustrated and with very limited distribution.
		In this respect, the two parts on invertebrates published in the early 1960`s by Al-Hussaini and Demian, in their series "Practical Animal Biology" were the best over the years.
		But these books, as their name implies, are concerned mainly with the practical side of invertebrate zoology courses, although much credited, meantime, for referring to Egyptian types.

		A thorough discussion on the morphology and development of the free-living mites, on their role as parasites of animals and plants, and as vectors of disease, may be found in Mites, or the Acari by T. Hughes (1959).
		The members of the suborder Trombidiformes are characterized by the respiratory system, when present, opening in the region of the gnathosoma, the portion of the body bearing the mouth and its appendages.
		The variety specific to man is generally referred to as the "itch" or "scab" mite, and acariasis caused by it is sometimes called "scabies." People are most likely to become infested when living in continually crowded quarters, such as slums or jails, or during periods of major calamities that result in prolonged overcrowding.

		Abstract - The monophyly of the antarctic fish suborder Notothenioidei and the Bovichtidae have been investigated with 12S and 16S mitochondrial DNA sequences.
		Bootstrap analyses show that the Notothenioidei are monophyletic (although members of the suborder Trachinoidei have not been surveyed).
		Such a "research program" in comparative biology has the power to improve knowledge because it can potentially lead to new experiments for testing adaptive hypotheses.
