What else can I help you with?
The greatest number of organisms living in the photic zone of a marine biome are?
phytoplankton, which are microscopic algae that photosynthesize and form the base of the marine food web. They are highly abundant in the photic zone due to the availability of sunlight for photosynthesis. This abundance of phytoplankton supports a diverse ecosystem of marine life in the photic zone.
How are organisms in the photic and aphotic zones interdependent?
The organisms in the aphotic zone depend on the organisms in the photic zone above to die, then drift down into the deep to provide food for the organisms down in the deep. I believe that the dependence of the photic organisms upon the aphotic organisms has to do with the necessity of breaking down the biomaterials and recycling the nutrients back into the system.
What are 2 natural resources in the photic zone?
Two natural resources found in the photic zone are sunlight and nutrients. Sunlight is essential for photosynthesis, which provides energy for many organisms in this zone. Nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus are vital for the growth and productivity of plants and algae in the photic zone.
What is the well lit upper layer part of the ocean is known as the?
photic zone.
Does the manatee live in the photic zone?
I think so yeah.
The well lit portion of the ocean?
Photic zone, is the area where all of the photosynthetic organisms live because is shallow enough that sunlight is able to penetrate
Why is life abundant in the photic zone?
Life is abundant in the photic zone because it receives sunlight, which is essential for photosynthesis. Photosynthetic organisms like phytoplankton use sunlight to produce energy, leading to a rich food supply that supports a diverse ecosystem of marine organisms ranging from algae to fish.
What zone does the eagle ray live in?
it lives in photic zones dear
What type of animals live in the photic zone?
The uppermost layer of the world's oceans that receive sunlight during the daytime is called the photic zone. The depth of this zone depends on the clarity or murkiness of the water. In clear water, the photic zone can be quite deep; in murky water, it can be only 50 feet deep. On average, it extends to about 660 feet. Animals that live in the photic zone are plants, such as free-floating algae, sea weeds, etc. Zooplankton, most ocean fish, sea turtles, seals, etc. Bottom-dwellers such as starfish and sea shells live in the photic zone too. This zone is defined in terms of light, not depth.
What is the photic zone of the ocean-?
The photic zone of the ocean is the surface of the ocean that receives sunlight.
In what ocean zone does the dolphin live in?
dolphins live in the pelagic zone (from shore to shore) and the Nerittic Zone (above continental shelf) and the photic zone (200m deep, where light penetrates) the are not found deeper than the photic zone
Portion of the marine biome that is too deep for sunlight to penetrate?
I dont know i want to know the answer myself
