What are the three main layers of the ocean?
he Epipelagic Zone is the first layer of the ocean. It's the zone that extends from the surface to 200 meters in depth. In this zone there is the most light and where there is sun there is heat. This is also the most clear zone.The Mesopelagic Zone is the second zone of the ocean layers. Extending from 200 meters to a 1000 meters. In this zone there isn't almost any sunlight that penetrates these depths. It's also called the Twilight zone or the Middwater zone, most of the deep sea fishes are living in this zone.The Bathypelagic Zone is also called the dark zone. In this zone there isn't any sunlight, but you can find light that is produced by deep sea animals like the Firefly Squid or the Vampire Squid. This zone extends from 1000 meters to 4000 meters where the pressure is so high that only a few deep sea animals can handle the pressure. The animals that live on these depths are mostly specially adapted creatures and they have a very different appearance then normal fishes.The Abyssopelagic Zone, this zone is very cold and it almost doesn't contain any lifeform. It's also called the abyss, what actually means no bottom in Greek. The animals that live here are mostly invertible like tiny sea animals. This zone extends from 4000 meters to 6000 meters! The pressure is too high for many deep sea animals.The Hadalpelagic Zone or Hadal zone, the last zone of the ocean layers extends from 6000 meters to the deepest bottoms of the oceans! The deepest spot can be found at the Mariana Trench of the coast of Japan that has a depth of more then 10.900 meters. The pressure here is just amazing and still there are creatures like the Viperfish and the Angler fish that can live on these depths. Animals that live on these depths die if they go to a zone with a lower pression.
Places where the seafloor is forced under continental plates?

How many life zones are in the ocean?

Quite a bit of specimens live here, the third is really dark and is called the midnight zone. A few, weird animals live here. The last has weird and spooky animals that don't come around a lot. It is called the trench zone and is pitch black.
