A substantial proportion of larger marine calcifying organisms are molluscs&colon; bivalves, gastropods and chitons. By targeting calcifying organisms, ocean acidification threatens the health of reef ecosystems as a whole. Other species of calcifying larvae have shown reduced growth rates under ocean acidification scenarios. Acidification lowers the level of carbonate ions available for calcifying organisms to form their shells. This is due, mainly, to the process of marine biogenic calcification, that calcifying organisms utilize. This reduction in pH affects biological systems in the oceans, primarily oceanic calcifying organisms. The Corallinophycidae is a grouping of three calcifying red algal lineages recovered by molecular analysis. Most calcifying organisms live in such waters. Nearly 90% of all calcifying plankton species perished. First, they are the earliest known calcifying organisms (organisms that built shells from calcium carbonate). The accumulation of ions is driven by ion pumps packed within the calcifying epithelium. As mentioned above, the molluscs are a well-known group of calcifying organisms. The standard treatment of calcifying odontogenic cyst is enucleation and curettage. On radiographs, the calcifying odontogenic cyst appears as a unilocular radiolucency (dark area). Calcifying organisms use calcium carbonate to produce shells, skeletons, and tests.
