There is no photosynthesis
What happens in a aphotic zone of body water?
There is no photosynthesis
What are the depths for the aphotic zone?
The aphotic zone is the depth of a lake or ocean where less than 1% of sunlight reaches. In the ocean it begins around 650-3,000 feet, but it depends on water conditions (how dark or murky the water is).
What is the difference between photic and aphotic?
"Photo" means light, so the difference is that one zone has light and the other has no light. (The prefix "a" means "without")
What zone does sunlight reach through?
Sunlight can reach through all the zones of the ocean, including the epipelagic (sunlight zone), mesopelagic, bathypelagic, abyssopelagic, and hadalpelagic zones. The intensity of sunlight decreases with depth, so the amount of light available for photosynthesis decreases below the epipelagic zone.

A body of freshwater is shown below. Which point in this body of water is most likely to be in the aphotic zone?
The point in the body of water that is most likely to be in the aphotic zone is the deepest point. The aphotic zone is the layer of a body of water where sunlight doesn't reach, so it typically starts at deeper depths where light penetration is limited or absent.
What is aphotic zone in the water?
It is so cold.
What is water pressure in the aphotic zone?
It is so cold.
What determines whether a zone is photic or aphotic?
The aphotic zone is formally defined as the depth beyond which less than 1% of sunlight penetrates.
What is the aphotic zone?
Aphotic zone is the area of a lake or an ocean which gets little or no sunshine throughout the year.
What distinguishes the photic zone from the aphotic zone in an aquatic zone?
Photic = where there's light Aphotic = where there isn't light, deeper waters.
What is the aphotic zone and what plants and animals live there?
Aphotic = no light so it is the zone below the depth of where light can penetrate. Depends on several things. The clarity of the water. less stuff in the water the farther light can go. There are no plants in the aphotic zone. Generally, there is less oxygen (and sometimes none) in the aphotic zone, but some animals can be found there. It depends on how deep this zone is and how well mixed the water column is.
What distinguishes the photic zone from the zone aphotic zone in an aquatic ecosystem?
Photic = where there's light Aphotic = where there isn't light, deeper waters.
