Does plankton live in the sunlight zone?
Some does like phytoplankton and zooplankton.
Why must phytoplankton live in the sunlight zone?
Because they just do, lol.
Do phytoplankton live deep in the ocean?
No because phytoplankton need sunlight to photosynthisize.
What producers are in the Neritic zone?
Producers in the neritic zone include phytoplankton, seaweed, and seagrasses. These organisms use sunlight for photosynthesis to produce energy for themselves and serve as the base of the food chain in this zone.
Does the sand dollar live in twilight midnight or sunlight zone?
They live in the sunlight zone
Does the humpback whale live in the sunlight zone?
yes, a killer whale or the orca sometimes live in the sunlight zone
What do phytoplankton use to thrive?
They use sunlight, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water, in a process called photosynthesis, to produce organic compounds which they use for food and to make their cells. One waste product is oxygen and this makes it possible for animals to live on earth.
What zone does the crab live in?

What type of zone is found in the open ocean?
The open water zone reaches down to where sunlight can still penetrate. Organisms that live here include tadpoles, fish, and non deep-rooted plants. Phytoplankton is the most abundant organism here.
Why is it important for phytoplankton to stay in the photic zone?
Phytoplankton must remain in the photic zone because this upper layer of water is where sunlight penetrates, enabling photosynthesis. By harnessing sunlight, phytoplankton produce oxygen and serve as the primary producers in aquatic food webs, forming the base for marine and freshwater ecosystems. Staying in this zone ensures they can efficiently convert light energy into chemical energy, supporting both their growth and the organisms that depend on them for food.
