Shrimp The Most Popular Type of Seafood in America is…
Did You Know: Fish and Shellfish aren’t the only types of seafood we eat. People also eat seaweed and other types of marine animals (such as whales).
Seafood includes many substances we need, including • protein and omega-3, and doesn’t have a lot of fat. • The protein is important because it is in large amounts. • The omega-3s in fish are important, because not eating enough omega-3s can kill people. • Fish has vitamin D and some parts of vitamin B that we need. • Oily fish , like tuna, have some oils that can lower blood cholesterol. • Eating fish can reduce the chance of heart disease. Seafood- Healthy Substances and Health Benefits
Do we really farm marine organisms? Aquaculture
Yes. Aquaculture is when we raise seafood to eat, instead of catching it in the wild. Aquaculture
As fishing is beginning to decline, aquaculture is becoming more popular. • About half of seafood eaten worldwide is farmed. • Fish that are farmed, thanks to genetic science, can taste better or be healthier than fish that we catch. • Salmon is a type of fish we farm. Shrimp and lobster are types of shellfish we farm. • We can also farm ocean plants such as seaweed, algae, and some vegetables. • Some fish eggs are even farmed. Aquaculture
Part 2: Consumer Products From the Oceans
Pearls: Gems of the Oceans • Pearls are very popular and valuable gems. • The most valuable pearls are naturally made by the Pinctada oyster. • Pearls can be natural or created by humans. We need to put small objects in a part of an oyster, which will cause it to form a pearl around it.
Potash is made from kelp and is used to make gunpowder and fertilizer. Kelp Part I: Potash
Algin, from kelp, is used to thicken, stabilize, suspend, and gel and is used in food, some medicines, and for scientific purposes. Kelp Part II: Kelp in food and other products

Agar, from red seaweed cell walls, which takes a gelatinous form when mixed with water, is used in soup, salad dressing, dessert jellies, and canned meats. Kelp Part II: Kelp in food and other Products
Kelp and seaweed can be converted into fuel. This is easier than to convert land-based biofuels to fuel because kelp and seaweed don’t need lignin, which helps plants grow even with gravity pulling them down. • Kelp is used on mollusk farms to feed mollusks. Kelp Part III: Fuel and Mollusk Farms
What can we get from the oceans in terms of medicines and chemicals?
Many chemicals we can use as medicines and for other purposes exist in the ocean. • Octopamine, from octopuses, can be used in fertilizer and only affects invertebrates (creatures without backbones) , such as fish, not vertebrates (creatures with backbones) , such as humans. • Didemnin B is a chemical from sea squirts that can shrink tumors in animals. • Manoalide can help fight skin diseases. It comes from sponges. Medicinal and Chemical Resources
