Marine Ecosystems


Different zones of the marine: Euphotic, Bathyal, Abyssal, and Benthtic. Those are the 4 zones of the marine ecosystem. Some animals in the Benthetic and Euphotic zone are rockfish, eels, starfish, lobsters, etc. Vegetation in the Euphotic and Benthetic is like corals, anemone, and seaweed. In bathyal, vegetation and animals consist of, sharks, whales, and maybe even some turtles. There is also some seaweed there too. But, in the abyssal zone, there are no plants because it is too dark, but there are still animals. Animals that live there are like the anglerfish. Climate can be hot or cold depending on the zone if it's higher or not. This is what I think.
