Photic Zone: part of the ocean that receives sunlight
Aphotic Zone: area in an ocean where sunlight does not reach and photosynthesis does not occur
Photic = where there's light Aphotic = where there isn't light, deeper waters.
Photic = where there's light Aphotic = where there isn't light, deeper waters.
Photic = where there's light Aphotic = where there isn't light, deeper waters.
Since the aphotic zone does not receive sunlight it relys on the photic zone for the sunlight which in terms it does penetrate.
