This Incredible Animation Shows How Deep The Ocean Really Is

There are multiple zones within the deep ocean. This diagram details what they are and where they are. The Mesopelagic Zone is where sunlight starts to decrease and the pressure starts to rise. The Bathypelagic Zone is where sunlight is completely gone and this is where different types of organisms like angler fish start to show up. The Abyssopelagic Zone is an abyss, like the name suggests. Pressure has increased to an extreme amount and only a few organisms including a few species of fish and eels live at this depth. Lastly there's the Hadapelagic Zone, which is essentially like a trench. There's even less amounts of organisms and there's absolutely no source of natural light.

Deep sea fish tend to be larger than normal fish and lives longer. Deep sea fish like the anglerfish can live up to 100 years. This is due to the fact the deep sea fish needs to store more energy to reproduce because their is less food in the deep.

While living in the deep ocean, since conditions aren't as they'd be in the upper Epipelagic Zone, fish and organisms have to adapt to the environment. Some are body color/camouflage for protection, methods of finding a mate in the dark by using light signals, and they live much longer than most ocean organisms due to the lack of nutrients, which causes them to grow and develop slower. Their slow-moving diet has adapted to the lack of food as well.

Distinguishing Features and Characteristics of the Deep Ocean

# data[].attributes.body
Some physical characteristics of the deep include: abiotic factors like the lack of light, increasing pressure, differing currents, lower temperatures, lack of oxygen, nutrients, and other chemicals. There are some biotic factors as well including: organisms that are either potential predators/prey, food, mates, competitors/symbionts.

-Abyssopelgic zone (4000 to 6000m)
-Hadalpelgaic (6000 to 11000m)
