The deepest part of the "benthic zone" for aqueous ecology is the "hadal" zone (6000 meters or more beneath the surface). It is also known as the hadopelagic or "trench zone" of deep-sea organisms.

Yes there are carnivores in the benthic zone. The scavengers in the benthic zone are considered carnivores because the eat the dead aquatic animals that float to the bottom when they die. There are also some carnivorous fish in the benthic zone.
What is a density independent factor of the benthic zone?
Since the benthic zone is the lowest level of any body of water, the depth of the water would be a density independent factor.for more information on the benthic zone double click on the word anywhere on the screen.
Do blue whales in a benthic zone?
yes
How much precipitation does benthic zone get?
Benthic zones vary widely in the amount precipitation received. It depends on the area in which the zone is located and weather it is close to other types of zones.

In terms of biomass, deep ocean habitats are similar to Benthic and Abyssal Zones.
What are the zones of a lake?
littoral zone,pelagic zone and benthic zone
What are the ocean zones of a marine ecosystem from the shallowest to the deepest?
There are two major ocean zones, Pelagic and Benthic zones. The Pelagic zone is the open ocean and the Benthic zone is the ocean bottom.
What are The three zones of a lake?

What is pelagi zone euphotic zone benthic zone and abyssal zone?
Zones in the ocean.
What are two abiotic factors for the benthic zones?
Light and type of substrata (soft sediments, rocky shore...)
Do sharks live in the benthic zone?
No. Sharks generally live in the surface, neritic, or intertidal zones of the ocean.
In terms of biomass deep ocean habitats are similar to .?
