James Fung 23rdJuly,2002 Biology investigation --- Comparing the differences in the diversity of fauna species in the upper shore and middle shore Introduction In order to investigate the diversity of fauna species in the upper shore and middle shore, where the information can then be compared, I am going to carry out some samplings. Hypothesis For the upper shore, it is only covered by sea water for a very short period of time, which means that desiccation happens quickly. In other words, organisms and rocks are drying out very soon. And because of the short time in obtaining nutrients from water and the wide variation in temperature, metabolism in organisms is affected. This often leads to slow growth and poor productivity in organisms. Species living there have to be quickly adapted to such conditions. Even these problems also occur in the middle shore. But as the species in the middle shore are covered by the...
