 st abundant biological entities on Earth\, capable of infecting all forms 
 of life! While they are often associated with diseases we want to avoid\, 
 they also play a critical and often overlooked role in maintaining the bal
 ance of our planet’s ecosystems. In the oceans\, viruses help regulate bio
 logical and chemical processes and even serve as food for other microbes.

 iruses play in marine life and ocean health. Discover how understanding vi
