Euphotic zones that are able to support life well because they are in the uppter layer of the ocean where the sun's rays penetrate, and the phytoplankton are most common in this area that makes fish and other sea animals eat them as their food.

Where are phytoplankton MOST productive?

Oh, dude, phytoplankton are most productive in areas with high levels of nutrients and sunlight, like the surface ocean where they can photosynthesize and thrive. They're like the overachievers of the ocean, soaking up all that sunlight and nutrients to grow and reproduce like there's no tomorrow. So, yeah, you'll find those little guys partying it up near the surface where all the action is.

Where is most ocean life found continental shelf continental slope or ocean deep?

Most ocean life is found on the continental shelf, which is the shallow area of the ocean extending from the coastline to the continental slope. This region is rich in nutrients and sunlight, supporting diverse ecosystems, including coral reefs and various fish species. In contrast, the continental slope and ocean deep are less productive due to lower light availability and fewer nutrients. Thus, the continental shelf is the most biologically productive area of the ocean.

Why is most productivity in open oceans limited to surface water?

Areas of the open ocean are often very deep. Primary productivity relies on sunlight, and sunlight only penetrates the first 10m or so (varies widely) of the ocean surface. Therefore, only this surface zone is photosynetically productive, which in turn fuels secondary (small crustaceans, zooplankton, etc.) and tertiary (fish) production.
