Difference between photic zone and aphotic zone?
Photic Zone: part of the ocean that receives sunlight Aphotic Zone: area in an ocean where sunlight does not reach and photosynthesis does not occur
The ocean zones based on light penetration are the?
photic zone and aphotic zone
What is the aphotic zone?
Aphotic zone is the area of a lake or an ocean which gets little or no sunshine throughout the year.
What are the differences between an aphotic zone and an euphotic zone?
Euphotic & Aphotic zonesEuphotic zone : is the upper layer of water that receives light and thus photothensythesis is possibleAphotic zone : is the portion of ocean that is not exposed to sunlight , and extends from - 0,9 - 4.6 kmEuphotic & Aphotic zonesEuphotic zone : is the upper layer of water that receives light and thus photothensythesis is possibleAphotic zone : is the portion of ocean that is not exposed to sunlight , and extends from - 0,9 - 4.6 km
What is aphotic zone?
The aphotic zone is the deepest part of the ocean where sunlight cannot reach. It is characterized by complete darkness and is home to various deep-sea organisms that have adapted to survival without light. The aphotic zone starts below the photic zone, which is the upper layer of the ocean where sunlight can penetrate.
What realms or zones do whales typically inhabit?
The Pelagic Ream. Most whales live out in the open ocean, ranging between the photic and aphotic zones.
What is the photic zone of the ocean-?
The photic zone of the ocean is the surface of the ocean that receives sunlight.
What is the well lit upper layer part of the ocean is known as the?
photic zone.
Does the sun penetrates the aphotic zone of a marine biome?
no it does not the darkness of the water is so far down that the sunlight cannot reach the bottem of the marine biome
Aphotic layer information?
The aphotic zone is that part of the ocean not reached by sunlight, and aphotic plants are those that grow there without photosynthesizing. The aphotic layer of the ocean is generally starts at a depth of about 100 meters, below which there is insufficient sunlight for photosynthesis.
What is the temperature on the epipelagic zone?
The photic zone where? The Atlantic Ocean has a photic zone, but so does the Pacific Ocean. Both have very different temperatures in their respective photic zones, and even variations within each ocean. The only thing we can say is that the temperature is higher than that of the aphotic zone.
Which ocean zone does sunlight penetrate?
The epipelagic zone is the region in the ocean that is exposed to a sufficient enough amount of sunlight to allow photosynthesis to occur.
