In my reserch I have found that they don't actually adapt, it's the way there body structure is made. The animals' bones are so stong they will not break from all the presure. Sometimes they are just extremely flexable so they aren't crushed like the octopus. If I didn't answer your question correctly just try to disscuss it with me. - The 11 year-old

OK! I will! You are nearly there. It is a matter of body structure and flexibility, but their bones do not need to be ever so strong because their bodies' internal pressures balance those of the surrounding water. Some fish and deep-diving whales swim up and down over considerable ranges of depth because their bodies' internal pressures adjust automatically.

Human divers manage in the same way because they breathe air through a valve that automatically adjusts the air-pressure to the water's, and this adjustment is transferred to the body generally.
