What else can I help you with?
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.
How do conditions in the open ocean neritic zones differ?
Neritic zones are closer to shore, shallower, and warmer than open ocean zones. They also tend to have higher levels of nutrients and more sunlight penetration, supporting greater biodiversity and productivity compared to open ocean zones.
What are the intertidal and neritic and open-ocean zones?
Polar and temperature
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 ocean zones based on the distance from the land and the depth of the ocean floor are the?
Intertidal zone, coastal ocean, and open ocean.
What plant lives in the open ocean zone?
The open ocean zones or the pelagic ecosystems are areas that are far away from the coasts and just above the sea bed. The open ocean zones lack nutrients that are needed for growth of plants. Due to this, these areas mainly have microphytoplanktons and macro algae.
What ocean zones are kelp forests found in?
northeastern pacific
What deep feature of the ocean floor is found at subduction zones?
A trench.
Where is most spreading zones found?
Most spreading zones, also known as mid-ocean ridges, are found along the ocean floor where tectonic plates diverge. These zones are primarily located in the Atlantic Ocean, particularly the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, as well as in the Pacific Ocean, including the East Pacific Rise. Spreading zones are characterized by volcanic activity and the creation of new oceanic crust as magma rises from the mantle.
Is the abundance of life is higher in the coastal zones of marine ecosystems than the open ocean?
yes
What realms or zones do whales typically inhabit?
The Pelagic Ream. Most whales live out in the open ocean, ranging between the photic and aphotic zones.
What ocean zone do blowfish live?
Blowfish, also known as pufferfish, can be found in a variety of ocean zones depending on the species. They can typically be found in coastal waters, coral reefs, and estuaries. Some species may also inhabit deeper waters in the open ocean.
