What layer is permanently devoid of light?
The layer that is permanently devoid of light is the abyssal zone, which lies beneath the photic zone of the ocean, typically at depths greater than 1,000 meters (3,280 feet). In this dark region, no sunlight penetrates, resulting in extreme conditions with high pressure and low temperatures. The abyssal zone is home to unique organisms that have adapted to survive without light, relying on chemosynthesis or scavenging.
What is the third layer of the ocean?
The third layer of the ocean is the Bathypelagic Zone. This is also called the dark zone. There is no sunlight in this zone, and it extends from 1,000 meters to about 4,000 meters in depth. The pressure is extremely high in this zone.
Why is the deep zone dark?

What is the region about below about 200 m in an open ocean is called?
It is called dark zone
The permanetly dark zone below the photic zone is called the?
The permanently dark zone below the photic zone is called the aphotic zone. In this region, sunlight is unable to penetrate deep enough for photosynthesis to occur, resulting in a lack of primary production by plants. Organisms in this zone rely on alternative energy sources, such as detritus and chemosynthesis.
What is in the ocean floor?
