The correct response is **a lanternfish on the Atlantic Ocean floor**.
Lanternfish are bioluminescent fish that can live in deep ocean environments, where sunlight does not penetrate. They are part of ecosystems that rely on chemosynthesis and other forms of energy, demonstrating that matter and energy can be cycled without sunlight.
