The water above the continental shelf is the neritic zone. Underwater forest of kelp and grassy meadows of sea grass are home to tiny fish, green turtles, sea cows, seahorses and tiny shrimp. Squid live in The Twilight Zone level.
minight zone
No. Sharks generally live in the surface, neritic, or intertidal zones of the ocean.
Secondary and Tertiary Consumers that are in the Neritic Zone are: larger fish, fish-eating birds, seals, sharks, human fishermen Producers if the Neritic Zone are: phytoplankton or autotrophic producers, and zooplankton, or heterotrophic producers
neritic zone
The Neritic Zone...I think.
Many marine organisms, such as fish and crustaceans, live in the neritic zone, which is the region of the ocean that extends from the low-tide mark to the edge of the continental shelf. Scientists study the neritic environment to understand its biodiversity and ecological dynamics.
yes they do
Yes they do live in the sunlit zone. they feed on plankton which also lives in this zone
Neritic zone
They are very tropical and come from the tributaries of the Amazon river
That depends on the specific neritic zone. An animal endangered in general in a neritic zone is different than one endangered in a specific estuary or reef ecosystem for example. Manatees would qualify if you wanted an example of an animal.
In the neritic zone, predators can include larger fish such as tuna, sharks, and barracuda, as well as marine mammals like dolphins and seals. Prey species can be smaller fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and plankton that make up the base of the food chain. This dynamic relationship helps maintain the balance of the ecosystem in the neritic zone.
