- 7. the force that increases as depth increases in the ocean
- 8. the deep pelagic zone also known as the midnight zone
- 10. the zone where sunlight does not reach
- 12. the pelagic zone from 0–200 meters where most marine life is found
- 13. the process used by phytoplankton to make food using sunlight
- 14. the benthic zone found along coastlines between high and low tide
Down
- 1. the benthic zone found along the continental slope
- 2. the upper ocean zone where sunlight allows photosynthesis
- 3. the pelagic zone also called the twilight zone
- 6. the ocean floor at all depths
- 7. the open water of the ocean not including the seafloor
- 9. the benthic zone that makes up the deep ocean floor
