Enod's coastal and rocky communities are two major biomes that house a diverse range of animal and plant life. These communities are found near the equatorial regions of Enodia and Arifica. The water is very warm. Plant and sea animals have been inhabitants of these communities for millions of years. The large rocks and a diverse range of primary producers provide shelter and food for many living organisms. Many of these plants and animals have adapted to this environment by evolving new organs and structural defenses. Animals developed fins or a large foot that allowed them to move and forage for food. Others developed mouths or filtration systems that allowed them to take in food. Plants develop a photosynthetic system that allowed them to convert light energy into food. Many of these new adaptations found in sea animals guaranteed their their survival againt strong currents and predators found in the waters of Enod. The wealth of plant life, minerals, and warm water found in these communities continue to provide theses organisms with opportunites to reproduce and form other communities throughout Enod. |
Plants and Animals
PLANOSPIRAL is a
primary consumer that feeds on chlorelloids and
small growing laminaria plants. It inhabits the
rocky water of planet Enod. The thick shell
protects the animal from predators and the strong
coastal currents. Planospiral is about 4 cm in
lenght and 3cm in height. LARGO gets its name
from the Spanish word largo meaning long. It
is a primary consumer that feeds on chlorelloids
and small growing laminaria plants. It inhabits the
rocky water of planet Enod. The thick scales and
poisonous tentacles near its head protect it from
predators (Larjaw and Greenfish). Largo is about 8
cm in lenght and 3cm in height. It uses
its short fin-like flippers and tail to propel itself. SLUGGO gets its name
from the slugs found on planet Earth. It is also a
primary consumer that feeds on chlorelloids by
filtering them from the water. It inhabits the
shallow rocky waters of planet Enod. The thick skin
and poisonous tentacles near its head protect it
from predators (Larjaw and Greenfish). Slago is
about the size of a sea-cucumber. Slago hides under
small rocks and between large
plants.



GREENFISH is found near
the euphonic zone. It is a secondary consumer that
feeds on primary producers and consumers. Greenfish
forages near the shallow rocky waters of planet
Enod during the day. The thick skin and sharp teeth
protect it from predators (Larjaw). Greenfish
spends most of its time swimming away from larjaw.
Greenfish is about the size of a goldfish. Greenfish
hides between small rocks for
protection. LARFISH dominates the
food chain. It is found near the euphonic zone and
roams throughout Enod's oceans in search of food.
It is a secondary consumer that feeds on primary
producers and consumers. Larfish's razor sharp
teeth allow it to tear and swallow just about any
plant or animal. The thick skin protect is from
the harmful UV rays. Greenfish spends most of its
time swimming away from larjaw. Larfish is about
the size of a seabass.
