What is profundal benthos?
Invertebrates found in the deeper zones of the body of water, usually where there is no effective light penetration.
What are the 3 ocean light zones?
The three ocean light zones are known as the "photic" zones. The Greek root photic means light.§ The Euphotic Zone:extends from 0m to 80mmeans "full of light". In this light zoneenough light penetration for green plant growth.§ The Disphotic Zone:extending from 80m to approximately 200mmeans "partial light"Variety of blue-green light here.§ The Aphotic Zone:extending beyond the 200m markmeans "without light"any life in this region must survive without light.In other curtailed words - the sunlight zone, the twilight zone and the midnight zone.
What are the ocean zones based on the distance from land and the depth of the ocean floor?
Intertidal zone, coastal ocean, and open ocean.

What are the four types of marine ecosysetems?
There is the photic zone, which measures 50-100 meters from the top of the water, this zone is a combination of the splash, intertidal, and inner shelf zones. Next is the aphotic, this is where light begins to not penetrate. Bathyal zone comes next, at this point the continental shelf has dropped. Abyssal sone, aka the abyssal plains. This is where the plains of the deep ocean floor are. Lastly is the hadal zone, these are the deep ocean trenches. On each one of these zones there are different ecosystems as the amount of light penetration, amount of pressure, and ability to float play huge factors in where the animal lives within these zones.
What deep ocean feature form at subduction zones?
Trenches are deep ocean features of subduction zones.
What are the scientific names for the ocean zones?
The ocean zones are divided into five main layers: epipelagic, mesopelagic, bathypelagic, abyssopelagic, and hadalpelagic. Their scientific names are based on their depth range and physical characteristics within the ocean.
