The Ocean:
A Unique World Unto Itself

There is one ocean that covers 70% of the entire planet. Different land masses or continents divide up the ocean into smaller bodies of water. These 5 different bodies of water are the Artic, Atlantic, Pacific, Indian and Southern Oceans

Other bodies of water that are partly closed off by land are called gulfs and seas. Filled with millions of unique and wondrous plants and animals, oceans provide food for much of the earth’s population.
