Plankton can be found in the Pelagic zone of oceans, seas, and bodies of fresh water.
Bathypelagic
-The Epipelagic zone (sunlight zone) -The Mesopelagic zone (twilight zone) -The Bathypelagic zone (midnight zone)
The oyster/pearl oyster lives in the bathypelagic zone of the ocean.
Plankton can be found in fresh water and the pelagic zone of seas and oceans. Plankton are organisms that drift around bodies of water.
Gulper Eels live right in the middle of the Bathypelagic Zone, more commonly known as the "Midnight" Zone, where it is black as night.
Since plankton need sunlight to survive, and considering the fact that sunlight is abundant in this zone, it makes sense that plankton would live in the sunlight zone.
No, narwhals do not live in the midnight zone. Narwhals are typically found in Arctic waters, where they remain close to the surface to breathe and feed. The midnight zone, also known as the middle zone or bathypelagic zone, is much deeper in the ocean and not a habitat for narwhals.
phytoplankton and zoo plankton
The six distinct ecological zones in the ocean are the epipelagic zone (sunlight zone), mesopelagic zone (twilight zone), bathypelagic zone (midnight zone), abyssopelagic zone (abyssal zone), hadalpelagic zone (trench zone), and intertidal zone (shoreline area). Each zone has unique characteristics and supports different types of marine life.
There are 5 layers of the ocean, not 4. They are: 1. Sunlit zone (epipelagic zone) 2. Twilight zone (mesopelagic zone) 3. Dark zone (bathypelagic zone) 4. Abyss (abyssopelagic zone) 5. Trenches (hadalpelagic zone) The scientific names for the layers are in parentheses.
