Yes if the water is clear and person is still in daylight range, though the refraction would give a false perception of position and depth.
Possible Answer: The open water zone is beneath the littoral zone and is only as light can reach. The deep water zone is below the open water zone where no light reaches
Water doesn't inhibit photosynthesis as long as it is not too deep for adequate light penetration.
Due to an abundance of water the plants roots don't have to go deep to find water, therefore they stay in shallow terrain.
Light.
You wade through it. Some splashing is assumed. Slither is not an appropriate term for someone walking.
because of refraction of light same principle as when you look at a straw in water and it looks broken
The speed of the light wave slows Some light is reflected off the surface of the water The light that enters the water is "refracted" (the direction of propagation changes due to the different indexes of refraction in air and water) Eventually the water will absorb all the energy of the light if the water is deep enough
This is due to refraction.
It depends on the REFRACTIVE INDEX of the Medium it is traveling though. That INDEX is directly dependent on the DENSITY of the Material.
refraction
Photosynthetic organisms need light in order to survive. In very deep water there is no light.
Light doesn't reach that deep. It is absorbed and blocked by the water.

The process of Light Refraction bends light rays as they pass from one substance to another, depending on the densities of these substances. In the case of water, the light goes from air (lower density) to water (which is denser) so the light is refracted at a smaller angle (with the 'normal' being 0 degrees) than when it entered. figure 1 shows the light going from low to high density, so the light refracts at a smaller angle. figure 2 shows the light going from high to low density, so the light refracts at a larger angle Picture is from [http://library.thinkquest.org/27066/lightrays/nlrefraction.html] Basically, the light refraction makes objects in a pond seem closer than they actually are Hope this helps :]

None as there is no light for photosynthesis!
