the zone that receives the strongest sunlight
The continental shelf is covered by the neritic zone, which extends from the coast to the edge of the continental shelf where the water is relatively shallow and receives ample sunlight, supporting a diverse range of marine life.
The Neritic zone is located in the space of ocean between shore and the continental shelf, which is still within the Photic zone (penetrated by sunlight).
the earth's core
The Neritic Zone is the region that receives lots of sunlight and extends to a depth of about 200 meters.
The photic zone of the ocean is the surface of the ocean that receives sunlight.
The tropical zone, located near the equator, receives direct sunlight year-round due to its proximity to the sun's rays. This results in consistent warm temperatures and minimal variation in daylight hours throughout the year.
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
Got! Highly
How much sunlight is in the mesopelagic zone
The ocean zone that covers the continental shelf is called the neritic zone. It extends from the shoreline to the edge of the continental shelf, which is typically around 200 meters deep. This zone is characterized by high levels of sunlight, nutrients, and biodiversity.
