The Atlantic Ocean is the second largest of the world's five oceans
The Atlantic Ocean appears to be the second youngest of the five oceans.
The Atlantic Ocean is the second-largest of the world's ocean divisions.
It is located between the continents of North and South America, Europe, Africa and Antarctica. Which cover total area of about 106,400,000 square kilometers (41,100,000 sq mi), The average depth of the Atlantic Ocean is 3,900 meters (12,800 ft). The ocean bed is made up of hills, mountains, tablelands and valleys just as on dry land. The Atlantic Ocean occupies an elongated, S-shaped basin extending longitudinally between the Americas to the west, and Eurasia and Africa to the east.
The Atlantic ocean is the busiest shipping ocean. The Atlantic ocean is the major artery between the Western and Eastern hemisphers. Economic activities include fishing, dredging of aragonite sands..in The Bahamas, and production of crude oil and natural gas in the Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, and North Sea.

The Angler Fish lives more than a mile deep in ocean water.
Anglerfish belong to family Lophiiformes. As you all are aware that the adaptations which inherit in any organisms make their life easy and it plays a significant role. In case of anglerfish, the fleshy growth is found at the head which operates as a lure, or it acts as a hook which is the essential feature for hunting. That is why the anglerfish is famous for its predation.
Some of the angler fish are found in open water and some are typically deep sea fish.
The scientists carry the great work of research about the sea life. While they were researching on the anglerfish, it was found that all the fish they captured were females only. Lots of testicles, which were though as parasites initially by the scientists, were attached to the female bodies. This was surprising and further research brought out the realities.
Male anglerfish are furnished with well developed olfactory organs. It helps the males to locate the female. The mating is carried out in a unique manner. When the male locates the female it bites her and discharges the enzyme. The male shrinks and drop its digestive organs, brain, heart, eyes etc. and remains as testicles. When the male notices the hormonal changes in the female’s blood stream, it gets the indication that it is the time the female is going to release eggs. At this point of time, the male testicles secrete the sperms. Many males can be integrated with a female. The whole episode of mating is called “Mating Frenzy”.
In European countries and North America people enjoy the tail meat of one of the fish from genus Lophius. The taste resembles the lobster.
Sea life is rich with various organisms; which are the integral part of the ecosystem. Their lifestyle, food habits, how they reproduce is really interesting to know.

The tourist’s activities such as deep sea diving, Underwater sports and fishing are the main contributors of the economy of the Caribbean nations.
.It supports the largest tourism industry.This sea is also the largest producer of oil in the world. It produces approximately one hundred and eighty million tons per year. The main reasons responsible for this are scenic destinations, abundant sunshine, trade winds and tropical temperatures.
All these factors have also resulted in the expansion of the cruise industry in the sea.so Caribbean Sea is the most popular destination for tourists.

Sea Monkeys are a true miracle of nature
Sea Monkeys are a type of brine shrimp, and a member of the animal family Crustacea,
which also includes crabs and lobsters. Sea Monkeys are a true miracle of nature.
They exist in suspended animation inside their tiny eggs for many years.
brine shrimp common name for a primitive crustacean that seldom reaches more than 1/2 in. (1.3 cm) in length and is commonly used for fish food in aquariums.
They can live in water having several times the salinity of Deep Sea water, but they can also tolerate water having only one tenth the marine salt concentration.
Brine shrimp usually occur in huge numbers and can be seen in vast windblown lines in the Great Salt Lake.
