Seaweed is unable to grow beyond the bathyal zone primarily due to the lack of sufficient sunlight. The bathyal zone, which extends from about 200 to 2,000 meters deep, receives very limited light, making photosynthesis impossible for the majority of seaweed species. Additionally, the colder temperatures and higher pressures in deeper waters create an environment that is not conducive to the growth of most photosynthetic organisms. As a result, seaweed is typically restricted to shallower areas where light and nutrient availability are more favorable.
