What can you infer about the water at the surface of the ocean compared to the water hundreds of meters below?
The water at the surface of the ocean is generally warmer and more oxygen-rich due to exposure to sunlight and atmospheric interaction, supporting a diverse range of marine life. In contrast, water hundreds of meters below is colder, denser, and often has higher pressure, with reduced light penetration and lower oxygen levels. This deeper water can also contain different nutrient profiles and is less influenced by surface weather conditions. Overall, these differences create distinct ecological zones within the ocean.
What else can I help you with?
What it the adjective of this sentence You can travel up to 4500 meters below the surface?
surface
Home to all life on earth?
A minuscule region comprised of the surface and a few hundreds of meters above and below it.
How do you calculate the pressure acting on an organism below the ocean's surface?
add 1 atm (atmosphere) for every 10 meters below the surface
Is the force of the water on the piers the same at the water surface as it is 30m below the surface?
No, it would be less due to compression by weight of the surface area water. Every so many feet (meters) down, another "atmosphere" of pressure is exerted. Ergo, water at the seabed would exert more pressure on the pier than the water at the surface.
If a person is swimming 3 meters below the surface of a pool do they feel more less or the same amount of pressure as the person swimming 3 meters below the oceans surface?
Less pressure because ocean water is salty and therefore denser.
Which continent contains the lowest place in the world?
Inland :Asia.(The surface of the Dead Sea on the border between Israel and Jordan is 424 meters below sea level and the deepest depth is 377 meters below that).At sea:Pacific Ocean (might be called part of the Asian continent but it really isn't)The challenger Deep of the Mariana Trench is 10,971 meters below the surface
What is the pressure 100 m below the surface of the sea water of denisty 1150kg m 3?
The pressure at 100 meters below the surface of sea water with a density of 1150kg is 145.96 psi.
Where is fluid pressure greatest in a swimming pool?
2 meters below the surface
Which is closer to the sea a helicopter flying at 302 meters above sea level or a diving bell 275 meters below sea level?
The diving bell, located 275 meters below sea level, is closer to the sea compared to the helicopter flying at 302 meters above sea level. While the helicopter is above sea level, the diving bell is submerged underwater, making its position closer to the surface of the sea. Therefore, the diving bell is the closer of the two to the sea.
What is the lowest elevation on Earth's surface?
The lowest elevation on Earth's surface is the shoreline of the Dead Sea, which is about 1,400 feet (430 meters) below sea level.
How deep is gold found?
Gold can be found at varying depths in the Earth's crust, typically ranging from a few meters to a few kilometers deep. Commercially viable gold deposits are usually found at depths of hundreds of meters to a few kilometers below the surface, where geological conditions have concentrated the gold into mineable ore bodies.
What fraction of an iceberg lies below the surface of water?
about 90%.
