There are four life zones in the ocean. The first and the closest to the surface is the sunlight zone. It contains a lot of life here. The second is darker and is called The Twilight Zone. Quite a bit of specimens live here, the third is really dark and is called the midnight zone. A few, weird animals live here. The last has weird and spooky animals that don't come around a lot. It is called the trench zone and is pitch black.
What else can I help you with?
Which ocean life zones do tuna live?
pacific ocean
Does salinity have an effect on the ocean life zones?
Yes. It does.
Which is not a factor used to divide the ocean into distinct marine life zones?
latitude
Are there many ocean dead zones?
Yes, there are a lot of ocean dead zone more then 400 of them now.
Is the abundance of life is higher in the coastal zones of marine ecosystems than the open ocean?
yes
What deep ocean feature form at subduction zones?
Trenches are deep ocean features of subduction zones.
What factor are used to divide the ocean into marine life zones?
3 factors are used to divide the ocean into distinct marine life zone : The availability of sunlight, the distance from shore, and the water depth
What criteria are used for determining ocean zones?
Ocean zones are determined based on depth and distance from the shore. The main criteria used are the amount of light that penetrates the water, temperature, and the presence of marine life. These criteria help scientists classify the ocean into distinct zones like the sunlight zone, twilight zone, and midnight 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.
Why some ocean zones have lot of life and zones have only little bit of life?
Any zone that sunlight can reach tends to have abundant life. In the depths, where sunlight can't reach, life becomes sparse and difficult unless the life has become specialised to withstand the huge pressures and darkness.
Which ocean zone would seem likely to support Marin life?
The only parts of the ocean that cannot support life are those without or with depleted levels of dissolved oxygen (anoxyic). There are some bacteria that live in these places, but not multicellular life. All other ocean zones have life, though in different degrees of intensity. Obviously a coral reef has more life and more species than a benthic (deep water) trench, but there is abundant specialised life in the benthic zones, regardless.
What is the zone where most ocean live lives?
The sunlight zone. Most animal and plant life use the sun to stay alive. The most plant life is found here. There is life in all zones in the ocean but the sunlight zone has the most.
