Why are green plants not found below a depth of 100 meters in oceans?

Green plants require sunlight for photosynthesis. Light penetration in oceans decreases with depth, and beyond 100 meters the sunlight is insufficient for green plants to carry out photosynthesis. As a result, green plants are not able to survive below the 100-meter depth in oceans.


Explain your observation in nature your reason for the absence of no green plants in the depth of the ocean where it is always dark?

Plants are green because of pigments, including chlorophylls, that absorb light for photosynthesis. In deep parts of the ocean, where it is always dark, photosynthesis cannot take place (there is no light), so there is no need for these green pigments in plants that may exist there. Therefore any plants that do exist there would not be green, as production of chlorophylls would be a waste of energy and resources.


Why does the shallow ocean zone have many plants and animals?

On early earth what happened to the rocks in the ocean as the number of photosynthesis bacteria increased?

As the number of plants that photosynthesize increased, the rocks in the ocean became covered with these primitive plants. They looked green due to the presence of the plants.


How can spider plants thrive in an ocean environment?

Spider plants cannot thrive in an ocean environment because they are terrestrial plants that require soil to grow. They would not be able to survive in the salty water of the ocean.


Why is salinity higher in the top layer of the oceans?
