'''Marine biology''' is the [[Research|study]] of any [[life|living]] plant or [[animal]] in the [[sea]]. [[Ocean|Marine]] [[biologist]]s are the people who study it. Like other scientists, marine biologists must know a lot about the creatures they are studying. They also must understand how the sea works. The study of how the sea works is [[oceanography]].

Marine animals include [[squid]]s, [[coral]]s, [[whale]]s and [[fish]]. Marine plants include [[sea grass]]es and [[algae]]. The [[Census of Marine Life]] was a ten-year project of marine biology.

One marine animal that is regularly seen in this position is called the lion fish also known as the zebra fish, fire fish, turkey fish, or butterfly cod. It has a pattern of [[red]], [[white]], cream, or black stripes. This fish is an invasive species. This means that it should not be in as many waters as it is. Another animal is the clownfish is usually orange, or [[yellow]], and [[black]] and white stripes. They are part of the Amphiprioninae family. Both of these animals are examples of the life in the ocean or sea.

The ocean is large and marine biologists work in many subfields like zoology, invertebrate, ichthyology, and physiology. Other subfields study physical traits like scales, scales, or eyes. Biologists also study [[animal behavior]].
