The zone of ocean under shelf and continental slope are continental.
The continental shelf is covered by the neritic zone, which extends from the coast to the edge of the continental shelf where the water is relatively shallow and receives ample sunlight, supporting a diverse range of marine life.
The abyssal zone is not included in the continental margin. It is the deep ocean floor beyond the continental shelf, slope, and rise.
The continental shelf, continental slope, and continental rise combine to form the continental margin. The continental margin is the transition zone between the continent and the deep ocean basin.
The continental margin is the zone of ocean floor that separates oceanic crust and continental crust. It accounts for 28% of all oceanic area.
The continental margin consists of three main subdivisions: the continental shelf, the continental slope, and the continental rise. The continental shelf is the shallow, gently sloping portion closest to the shore. The continental slope is the steeper portion that connects the shelf to the deep ocean floor. The continental rise is the transition zone between the slope and the deep ocean basin, where sediments accumulate.

Clown fish live on the continental shelf part of the ocean zone.
The neritic zone is the relatively shallow part of the ocean above the drop off of the continental shelf. The neritic zone is also known as the coastal water, coastal ocean or the sublittoral zone.
