The correct statement that explains why it becomes darker as you go deeper in the ocean is:
More light is absorbed and less light is transmitted as you go deeper.
As light penetrates the ocean, water absorbs colors in the light spectrum, with red light being absorbed first, followed by orange, yellow, green, and blue. This absorption effect results in less light being transmitted to deeper depths, leading to darker conditions.
