Where are mangrove wetlands typically found?

They are found inland, in low land areas and can be found in fresh or brackish waters, lakes, ponds and along coastal areas. On the coast they are found in shallow seawater with low wave energy and on the leeward side of the island.

2
New cards

‘Mangrove mud tends to be anoxic’. Define anoxic

Anoxic means oxygen deficient

3
New cards

What causes the foul smell in the mangrove ecosystem?

Decomposition by anaerobic bacteria produces hydrogen sulfide which smells like rotten eggs causing the foul smell.

4
New cards

List and describe the importance of the Mangrove Wetlands

-Flood Control: After heavy rain, water drains into these low-lying areas, reducing the flooding in homes, farms, roads, and businesses.

-Coastal Protection: The roots and stems of the mangrove plant break waves helping to reduce inland erosion and flooding.

-Water Supply: Water drains into wetlands, replenishing groundwater supply.

-Nursery for Marine Species: These areas are rich in nutrients and the roots of red mangroves protect juveniles from larger predators.

-Habitat for Biodiversity- mangroves are home to a large variety of aquatic and terrestrial species.

-Recreation and Education- They are beautiful places to visit for relaxation and learning.

-Climate Control: The plants absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen through photosynthesis.

-Sediment Traps: The roots of plants trap sediment run-off preventing it from being washed off into the sea. This helps the coral reefs which need clear, sediment-free water to thrive.

-Products: Wetlands produce commercial products such as food, fuel, wood, and craft materials.

5
New cards

What are the four types of mangroves? (in order of closest to the shore to the farthest)

-Red mangroves (Rhizophora mangle)

-Black mangroves(Avicennia germinans)

-White mangroves(Laguncularia racemosa)

-Buttonwood(Conocarpus erectus)

6
New cards

List the special features of the red mangroves?

-Placement: The red mangrove is found in the water and along the shore.

-Roots: They have reddish-colored prop roots to stabilize the tree in soft mud. The prop roots are covered with breathing pores called lenticels. These are needed as the mud is anoxic. Roots also exude salt.

-Leaves: The leaves are large with pointed tips and are attached opposite to each other. These leaves have a thick waxy cuticle which reflects heat, reducing the rate of transpiration. The red mangrove accumulates salt in sacrificial leaves which turn yellow, discarding the salt as the leaves fall from the tree.

-Flowers: The flowers are yellow-cream. They bear four creamy yellow sepals and four white pointed petals.

-Fruit: The fruit which is called a propagule, germinates while attached to the parent plant.

7
New cards

List and describe the special features of the black mangrove.

-Placement: They are found on the shoreland landward of the red mangrove in between the low and high tide mark. They are the most salt-tolerant of the mangroves and can grow in hypersaline ponds. They have a dark ‘blackish’ bark.

-Roots: They have special roots called pneumatophores. These ‘breathing roots’ extend above the mud using lenticels which allow the air to diffuse into the root system.

-Leaves: The leaves are pale green and pointed. They are smaller than the leaves of the red mangroves. They also excrete salt from their leaves from their salt glands.

-Flowers and Fruit: The flowers how 4 petals that grow in clusters. They produce green teardrop-shaped fruits.

8
New cards

List and describe the special features of the white mangrove.

-Placements: The white mangrove is found further inland and is less salt tolerant.

-Roots: White mangroves also have pneumatophores but in fewer numbers than black mangroves.

-Leaves: They grow opposite to each other have rounded tips and are attached to the main stem by pinkish-colored petioles. There are two distinct nectaries found on the petioles at the base of the leaves which secrete sugar. The sugar secreted attracts insects for pollination and pest control

-Flowers and fruits: The flowers are tiny, white, and bell-shaped and they grow in clusters. They produce small green-ribbed fruit shaped like kernels of corn

9
New cards

List and describe the special features of buttonwood.

-Placement:While they are not true mangroves they are often found with mangroves at the edge of the wetland. They grow well above the high tide mark and therefore have no special root adaptations.

-Leaves: They grow alternate to each other and are green or silver in color. The silver comes from the hairs on the leaf which trap water vapor, increasing humidity, conserving water by reducing the transpiration rate

-Flowers and fruit: The flowers are very tiny and grow in ball-like clusters. The fruit, which are reddish, round, and button shaped give the tree its name.

10

-Barrier reefs: Run parallel to the coast but are located far offshore.

-Atolls: Found far from the shore. Have a circular or horseshoe shape and have a lagoon in the middle.

-Patch reefs: Smaller clumps/patches of reef.

16
New cards

Coral Anatomy.

Corals are invertebrates in the phylum, Cnidaria. Each organism is called a polyp. These polyps live in colonies to form coral structures that form coral reefs. They secrete a cup-like skeleton of calcium carbonate.

The polyp is transparent and has a central mouth surrounded by tentacles. The tentacles have stinging cells which are used to capture pretty and for protection.

19
New cards

What type of relationship do coral reefs and zooxanthellae have? Explain fully

They have a symbiotic mutualistic relationship in which the coral provides the zooxanthellae with protection and carbon dioxide whereas the zooxanthellae provide oxygen,food and color.

20
New cards

What is coral bleaching?

When environmental conditions become intolerable the zooxanthellae leave the coral polyps which causes their color to leave them turning white. After the zooxanthellae are gone, coral will have a harder time getting nutrients which leads to the death of the coral.

62
New cards

What are two ways fires in the pine forest can start?

The fires can either be started and managed by humans or a lighting strike can spark a fire using the fallen leaves and pine needles as fuel.

63
New cards

Why are mature caribbean pines not affected by the fires

They are not affected as they have a resistant bark to insulate them and high open branches to allow heat to disperse

64
New cards

What would happen if these natural fires did not happen in the absence of naturally occurring fires in the pine forest?
