What determines whether the benthic zone in a lake will sustain photosynthesis?
The amount of light penetration into the benthic zone, nutrient availability, and the presence of photosynthetic organisms such as phytoplankton and aquatic plants are key factors that determine whether photosynthesis can occur in the benthic zone of a lake. If there is sufficient light and nutrients, photosynthesis can be sustained in the benthic zone.
What is benthic-pelagic coupling?
Benthic-pelagic coupling is the recycling of nutrients between the benthos (bottom) and the water column (pelagic habitat).
Do blue whales in a benthic zone?
Blue whales are not benthic animals, as they are pelagic mammals that primarily inhabit open ocean waters. They are known to dive deep to forage for food but do not reside in the benthic zone near the seabed.
What are consumers in the benthic zone?
Consumers in the benthic zone, called Zoobenthos, can range from starfish in the intertidal zone, to bottom-dwelling flatfish, to deep sea Rattails. The type of consumer is highly dependent on the specific areas in the benthic zone.
What does the benthic zone cover?
The benthic zone covers about 70 percent of the surface of the Earth. It is the ecological region at the lowest level of a body of water.
