Question

in which zones is sunlight available for photosynthesis? Check all that are correct
1)Mesopelagic Zone
2)Bathypelagic Zone
3)Abyssalpelagic Zone
4)Hadal Zone
5)Epipelagic Zone

Answer 1

Sunlight is available for photosynthesis primarily in the **Epipelagic Zone**. This is the surface layer of the ocean that receives enough sunlight to support photosynthetic organisms like phytoplankton.

The other zones listed—**Mesopelagic Zone**, **Bathypelagic Zone**, **Abyssalpelagic Zone**, and **Hadal Zone**—are deeper layers of the ocean where sunlight does not penetrate effectively, and thus photosynthesis does not occur.

So, the correct option is:

5) **Epipelagic Zone**.
