The deep scattering layer is created by which of these:
a) seasonal changes in the thermocline
O b) mesopelagic nekton
O c) abyssopelagic plankton
O d) phytoplankton blooms
Which of these statements describes an accurate model for how carbon dioxide and oxygen levels change within the ocean over time? Choose two answers that apply.
A) eutrophication of the ocean leads to an increase in dissolved oxygen.
B) photosynthesis by the phytoplankton increase the oxygen concentration of the ocean.
C) decomposition of dead organic matter decreases the oxygen concentration in the ocean.
D) cellular respiration by primary consumers increases the oxygen concentration in the ocean
E) anaerobic respiration at the ocean floor decreases the carbon dioxide levels in the ocean
Estimate the maximum depth of the euphotic zone in a eutrophic lake.
