The bathyal zone is a deep-sea region typically found at depths of 200 to 4,000 meters. It receives little to no sunlight, resulting in low light levels. Organisms in this zone are adapted to withstand high pressure and cold temperatures.
The water pressure in the bathyal zone typically ranges from 400 to 4,000 kilopascals (kPa), or approximately 58 to 580 pounds per square inch (psi). This pressure increases with depth due to the weight of the water above pushing down.
Earth has three main climate zones. These climate zones are the polar zone, the tropical zone, and the temperate zone.
The three climate zones are tropical, temperate, and polar. These zones are determined by factors such as latitude, temperature, and precipitation patterns. Each zone has distinct characteristics that influence the type of flora, fauna, and weather conditions present in those regions.
The three major layers that rainwater typically encounters as it permeates the ground to reach an aquifer are the topsoil, the unsaturated zone (vadose zone), and the saturated zone where the groundwater lies. Rainwater percolates through these layers, with the depth of the unsaturated zone varying in different locations.

No, the intertidal zone is not in the bathyal zone. The intertidal zone is the area between high and low tides on the coast, while the bathyal zone is a deep-sea zone beginning at about 200 meters below the surface of the ocean.
I think it is the bathyal zone. :)
No, honey, orcas don't live in the bathyal zone. They prefer to hang out in the epipelagic and mesopelagic zones where they can show off their killer instincts. The bathyal zone is a bit too deep and dark for these majestic creatures to strut their stuff.

Bathyal zone
Sunlight does not reach this zone, meaning there can be no primary production
the bathyal zone
The zone is the bathyal zone.
Plants in the bathyal zone are limited to marine algae and phytoplankton that are able to photosynthesize and create their own food using sunlight. These plants are adapted to low light conditions and can be found in the upper part of the bathyal zone where some sunlight penetrates the water. Examples include diatoms, green algae, and cyanobacteria.
Swallower Eels and Gulper Eels are the most common
No whale species live permanently in the bathyal zone, but sperm whales, with the large proportion of tissue in their heads protecting them from the immense pressures at depth, are capable of diving into the bathyal zone to hunt. They prey on squid, including the giant squid.
The water pressure in the bathyal zone typically ranges from 400 to 4,000 kilopascals (kPa), or approximately 58 to 580 pounds per square inch (psi). This pressure increases with depth due to the weight of the water above pushing down.
