know it but on our biosphere 生物圈 Earth there is also a relatively unknown world hiding in plain sight It is made up of microbes 微生物 that live on floating pieces of plastic floating on the ocean This Plastisphere of microbial organism living on ocean plastic was first discovered last year and it is now getting studied When researchers first examined the Plastisphere they found at least 1 000 different types of microbes living on the tiny plastic islands and worried that they might cause a risk to larger animals and humans They also found that the Plastisphere s microbes included bacteria known to cause diseases in animals and humans Since then researchers have been trying to figure out why these potentially dangerous bacteria live on the Plastisphere how they got there and how they are affecting the surrounding ocean New evidence suggests that super colonizers form seeable clusters 丛 on the plastic in minutes Other findings indicate that some types of harmful bacteria favor plastics more than others And scientists are exploring if fish or other ocean animals may be helping these pathogens 病原体 develop quickly by taking in the plastic That could allow bacteria to acquire additional nutrients as they pass through the guts 肠子 of the fish said Tracy Mincer an associate scientist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Woods hole Mass Showing this information could help scientists better understand how much of a potential threat these harmful bacteria cause and the role the Plastisphere plays in the largest ocean ecosystem including its potential to change nutrients in the water That information could also help reduce the impact of plastic pollution in the ocean Mincer said 28 Researchers are worried about the microbes living on the floating pieces of plastic because A they might break the balance of the ecosystem in the sea B they might cause diseases to sea animals or humans C they will make the sea polluted more severely D they may reduce the
