Resistance of water is probably defined as pressure being applied by water on objects and as it's stated in fluid mechanics books pressure increases as height decreases or depth increases, so simply the answer is "yes".

What are three forces that affect the motion of an object are?
Forces can be divided into pushes, pulls and twists. I'm not sure if that is the type of answer you were looking for though. A range of different forces can affect the motion of objects depending on the circumstances e.g. thrust, lift, air resistance, water resistance etc
How is water depth measured?
The depth in the ocean is measured by sounding using echo-sounders. Nowadays satellites are also used for this purpose.
Is water resistance a contact or non contact force?
Contact.
What 3 factors affect the amount of air resistance acting on an object?
Speed, shape and frontal cross-section. Viscosity, texture, friction, gravity, velocity, size, and shape can all affect air resistance.
How are air resistance and friction alike?
Air resistance is a type of fluid friction (along with water resistance) and is therefore is a type of friction.
What are forces that affect swimming?
There is friction in the water. There is also resistance from water.
How does depth affect pressure?
More depth equals more pressure, thus why ears pop when diving in water.
What affect does streamlining have on forces?
It tends to reduce air (or water) resistance.
Does the depth density of water affect sound underwater?
It makes the sound travel further
How does depth affect ocean temperature?
the deeper you go, the colder the ocean water gets
Which information is most important when passing near a lighthouse?
Depth of water
Does the temperature of water decrease or increase with depth?
The shallower the water is, the warmer it can be. Direct sunlight will warm the water and as the water deepens, the warmth from the sun cannot reach as far. This creates a slightly colder temperature.
How does changing depthe affect water pressure?
it doesnt That is really bad answer
What 3 natural events that can affect the depth of the water table?
we can overuse or a bad rainy day
How do depth and temperature affect pressure?
Depth and temperature affect pressure by increasing the pressure as the depth increases. As depth increases, temperature often falls.
What does the abbreviation ATM on a waterproof watch stand for?
ATM is the depth by which water resistance is measured on a watch. ATM stands for Atmospheres. 1 atmosphere is equivalent to appx. 33 feet depth in water. So if a watch is 3 ATM = 100 ft. water resistant.
What is an impurity in air soil or water?
Its called the resistance affect it starts in the ocean and contaminates the air water and land
