What else can I help you with?
Is the intertidal zone in the bathyal zone?
No, the intertidal zone is not in the bathyal zone. The intertidal zone is the area between high and low tides on the coast, while the bathyal zone is a deep-sea zone beginning at about 200 meters below the surface of the ocean.
Why do whales live in the midnight zone when they need sunlight and air to live?
No whale species live permanently in the bathyal zone, but sperm whales, with the large proportion of tissue in their heads protecting them from the immense pressures at depth, are capable of diving into the bathyal zone to hunt. They prey on squid, including the giant squid.
What ocean zone will you find a shark in?
I think it is the bathyal zone. :)
What plants live in the bathyal zone?
Plants in the bathyal zone are limited to marine algae and phytoplankton that are able to photosynthesize and create their own food using sunlight. These plants are adapted to low light conditions and can be found in the upper part of the bathyal zone where some sunlight penetrates the water. Examples include diatoms, green algae, and cyanobacteria.
What are 5 Marine Ecosystems?
- the intertidal zone - the sublittoral zone - the bathyal zone - the abyssal zone and - the hadal zone
What zones is mainly decaying matter?
Bathyal zone
Why are plants scarce in the bathyal zone?
Sunlight does not reach this zone, meaning there can be no primary production
What animals live in the bathyal zone?
Angler fish, Gupler eel, Rat tail fish, crustaceans, Squid, Whales, and viperfish
Which benthic zone has a depth range between 200 m and 4000 m?
the bathyal zone
Bathyal zone animals?
The bathyal zone is a marine ecologic realm that is deep below sea level and is in permanent darkness. The animals that live there are carnivorous because there is no primary production of plants. Eels, squid, crustaceans, some fish, large whales, sponges, octopuses, and sea stars live in this deep sea area.
What is the name of the zone in the benthic environment with depth ranges from 200 to 4000 m below sea level?
The zone is the bathyal zone.
What are three characteristics of the bathyal zone?
The bathyal zone is a deep-sea region typically found at depths of 200 to 4,000 meters. It receives little to no sunlight, resulting in low light levels. Organisms in this zone are adapted to withstand high pressure and cold temperatures.
