The photic zone is the region of an aquatic environment where light can penetrate sufficiently for photosynthesis to occur. It typically extends to a depth of around 200 meters in clear oceanic waters, but can vary depending on water clarity and other factors.
The region of the aquatic environment where light can penetrate is referred to as the euphotic zone. This zone is characterized by sufficient light for photosynthesis to occur, supporting the growth of algae and phytoplankton that form the base of the aquatic food chain.
The transparency of water allows sunlight to penetrate, enabling photosynthesis for aquatic plants and algae. This supports the base of the food web, providing energy for other aquatic organisms. Transparency also affects visibility, predator-prey interactions, and overall ecosystem health.
Light determined the major types of flora and fauna found in aquatic ecosystems.eg, Tropical region compare to polar region. Due to presence of light, tropical is more productive than polar. so major flora and fauna are found in tropical, so light act as productive force in the tropical region.
Yes, red lasers can penetrate plain glass to some extent, depending on the power of the laser and the thickness and quality of the glass. However, the penetration depth may be limited, and the glass may absorb or reflect some of the laser light.
aqua means water and when u say aquatic you mean water like ecosystem with diff.types of algeas,protist,plankton,and more.
The region where no light penetrates in an aquatic environment is known as the midnight zone. The mesopelagic zone is an area where small amounts of light penetrate.
The region of the aquatic environment where light can penetrate is referred to as the euphotic zone. This zone is characterized by sufficient light for photosynthesis to occur, supporting the growth of algae and phytoplankton that form the base of the aquatic food chain.
Yes, it does. When the plants get light, they photosynthesis and give out oxygen to the aquatic animals.The animals then give out carbon dioxide to the plants for them to photosynthesis. But if, there is no sunlight, the plants cannot photosynthesis to make food and give out oxygen to the aquatic animals.Both the aquatic plants and animals eventually die. Therefore, the light affects the amount of living things in a water environment.
They need the sunlight. It is true that it is warmer there. But the main thing is that there is more oxygen for all organisms.
The transparency of water allows sunlight to penetrate, enabling photosynthesis for aquatic plants and algae. This supports the base of the food web, providing energy for other aquatic organisms. Transparency also affects visibility, predator-prey interactions, and overall ecosystem health.
Red light does not penetrate more than gamma rays.
Light determined the major types of flora and fauna found in aquatic ecosystems.eg, Tropical region compare to polar region. Due to presence of light, tropical is more productive than polar. so major flora and fauna are found in tropical, so light act as productive force in the tropical region.
coz it cant
if wavelength of light is of order of radii of earth then why it will penetrate deeper in sea?
Oxygen is recycled in an aquatic environment in much the same way as it is on land. Phytoplankton, diatoms, seaweeds, and other underwater autotrophs use the sun's light to perform photosynthesis and release some of the oxygen produced in this process as a waste product. That oxygen is breathed in by aquatic animals and these animals exhale carbon dioxide because of respiration, which is necessary in the photosynthesis process by the autotrophs.
they are absorbed
The depth light can penetrate underwater depends on water clarity and the angle of the sun. In clear ocean water, sunlight can penetrate up to 200 meters (656 feet). In murky or turbid water, light penetration may only be a few meters.
