How is the deep ocean floor different from the shallow parts of the ocean floor near land?
The deep ocean floor is characterized by extreme pressures, cold temperatures, and a lack of sunlight, leading to unique ecosystems that rely on chemosynthesis rather than photosynthesis. In contrast, the shallow parts of the ocean floor near land are typically warmer, well-lit, and host diverse ecosystems, including coral reefs and seagrass beds, that thrive on sunlight. Additionally, shallow areas are more influenced by terrestrial runoff and nutrient inputs, which can support a higher density of marine life compared to the deep sea.
