Seafood is any sea animal or seaweed that is served as food or is suitable for eating. This usually includes seawater animals, such as fish and shellfish (including mollusks and crustaceans). By extension, in North America although not generally in the United Kingdom, the term seafood is also applied to similar animals from fresh water and all edible aquatic animals are collectively referred to as seafood. Edible seaweeds are rarely considered seafood, even though they come from seawater and are widely eaten around the world. See the category of sea vegetables.

| From the earliest age of human civilization, seafood has been an important food source: it can easily be hunted and gathered, even by those lacking power or speed. Basket-like traps have long been widely used to hunt fish in rivers and lakes. Sometimes, fish were speared just as one would hunt a small animal. Ancient Egyptian civilization used the symbol of fish for counting large numbers; they ate fish both dried and fresh. Observant Jews abstain from all shellfish due to kashrut. It is looked over often, but the rise of ancient Greek and Roman civilization was in no small part due to the abundant fish of the Mediterranean Sea.[citation needed] Shellfish was a staple food in many locations and in the Jomon period of Japan; the amount of shellfish consumed and thrown away from that time is used to measure how many people lived in a ce..."

A market is a social arrangement that allows buyers and sellers to discover information and carry out a voluntary exchange of goods or services. It is one of the two key institutions that organize trade, along with the right to own property. Allowing markets to arrive at a pareto efficient outcome is one of the key components of capitalism. In everyday usage, the word "market" may refer to the location where goods are traded, sometimes known as a marketplace, or to a street market. - 1 Function

| The function of a market requires, at a minimum, that both parties expect to become better off as a result of the transaction. Markets generally rely on price adjustments to provide information to parties engaging in a transaction, so that each may accurately gauge the subsequent change of their welfare. In less sophisticated markets, such as those involving barter, individual buyers and sellers must engage in a more lengthy process of haggling in order to gain the same information. Markets are efficient when the price of a good or service attracts exactly as much demand as the market can currently supply. The chief function of a market, then, is to adjust prices to accommodate fluctuations in supply and demand in order to achieve allocative efficiency. An economic system in which goods and services are exchanged by market functions is called a market economy. An alternative economic system in which non-market forces (often government mandates) determine prices are called planned economies or command economies. The attempt to combine socialist ideals with the incentive system of a market is known as market socialism. Although many markets exist in the traditional sense--such as a flea market--there are various other types of them and various organizational structures to assist their functions. A market can be organized as an auction, as a shopping center, as a complex institution s..."
