aphotic zone
Since the aphotic zone does not receive sunlight it relys on the photic zone for the sunlight which in terms it does penetrate.
Pelagic Zone
There are four major zones of the open ocean biomes, which are grouped as such: the intertidal zone, the pelagic zone, the benthic zone and the abyssal zone. The environments found in each vary greatly, and they play host to a diverse population of ocean flora and fauna.

The marine zone that is divided vertically by depth into three additional zones is the pelagic zone. The three zones within the pelagic zone are the epipelagic zone (0-200 meters), the mesopelagic zone (200-1,000 meters), and the bathypelagic zone (1,000-4,000 meters). These zones represent different levels of light penetration and nutrient availability.
