What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between the pelagic zone and the benthic zone?
the depth of the pelagic zone is 11 kilograms
What is the order of benthic zones?
The deepest part of the "benthic zone" for aqueous ecology is the "hadal" zone (6000 meters or more beneath the surface). It is also known as the hadopelagic or "trench zone" of deep-sea organisms.
What is a density independent factor of the benthic zone?
Since the benthic zone is the lowest level of any body of water, the depth of the water would be a density independent factor.for more information on the benthic zone double click on the word anywhere on the screen.
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.
Which zone is mos likely to have insects and very little plant life?
The benthic zone
Do scavengers live in the benthic zone?
Yes.
What kinds of animals live in the benthic zone?
fishes
Which zone would be diffucult for a plant to live in?
benthic
What part of the ocean does rattail fish live in?
the deep or the benthic zone
What environment does a harbor seal live in Benthic or Pelagic zone?
pelagic
Why is it more difficult for plants to live in the benthic zone of this lake than in limnetic zone?
Lack of Light.
Do the blue whales live in the benthic habitat?
Benthic is the seafloor or floor of a lake. Clams would live there. Whales live in the Pelagic zone. I'm in biology now and we just had that question!
Do sharks live in the benthic zone?
No. Sharks generally live in the surface, neritic, or intertidal zones of the ocean.
A lake has very deep water at the bottom in the benthic zone. Why is it more difficult for plants to live in the benthic zone of this lake than in the littoral zome?
In the benthic zone, the water is deeper and often has lower light penetration compared to the littoral zone, where sunlight can easily reach the substrate, supporting plant growth. Additionally, the benthic zone may have different sediment characteristics and reduced nutrient availability, making it less hospitable for many aquatic plants. These factors combined limit the ability of plants to photosynthesize and thrive in the deeper waters of the benthic zone.
Which of the could you find in the benthic zone of a lake?
You would fine sediment in the benthic zone, or bottom, of a lake.
Aquatic plants can live in the benthic zone of shallow lakes because?
sunlight reaches the bottom
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.
