What else can I help you with?
What is lacking in the deep ocean ecosystem?
Sunlight is scarce in the deep ocean, which limits photosynthesis and primary production. This results in a lack of complex food webs and biodiversity compared to shallower regions of the ocean. Additionally, nutrient availability can be limited in deep ocean ecosystems.
Where in waters biome can photosynthesis occur?
If in shallow water, the plants that grow on the bottom, but if on deep water, on floating algae.
What layer of the ocean do plants grow?
Plants in the ocean typically grow in the euphotic zone, which is the upper layer where sunlight penetrates and allows for photosynthesis to occur. This zone usually extends to around 200 meters deep, but can vary based on water clarity and other factors.
What is photosynthesis in what major organelle does it occur in?
Photosynthesis is the process of making food in the presence of sunlight. It occur in chlorophyll.
What ocean zone do diatoms live in?
Diatoms are primarily found in the sunlit zone of the ocean, also known as the euphotic zone. This zone receives enough sunlight for photosynthesis to occur, which is essential for diatoms as they are photosynthetic organisms. They are most abundant in surface waters where sunlight penetration is optimal.
What does photosynthesis not occur very deep in the ocean?
Because it just doesn't happen.
Why is life abundant in the surface zone but scarce in the deep zone of the ocean?
Life is abundant in the surface zone due to sun light is available for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis can only occur 100-200 meters down.
Why do deep ocean currents occur?
My best guess is that they occur because of warming and cooling of the surface temperature. I am sure there is a pattern of these deep ocean currents to and from the equator and the poles.
Photosynthesis can take place only near the surface of a very deep body of water.?
False.

Why does deep-ocean trench occur?
At deep-ocean trenches, subduction allows part of the ocean floor to sink back into the mantle. The ocean floor does not just keep spreading. Instead, it sinks beneath deep underwater canyons called deep-ocean trenches. Where there are trenches, subduction takes place.

What do scientists think may cause deep ocean circulation to occur?
k
Why does the shallow ocean zone have many plants and animals?
it has so many plants because the plants can do photosynthesis. unlike in the deep ocean with no sunlight
Why green plants are unable to live deep in the ocean because the?
Not enough light penetrates to allow photosynthesis.
Where in waters biome can photosynthesis occur?
If in shallow water, the plants that grow on the bottom, but if on deep water, on floating algae.
What does Deep Current mean?
A Deep Sea Current is a ocean current formed by density.
