Answer:

The pressure increases with the weight of the water above.

Explanation:

Bathypelagic zone is present above the abyssopelagic zone. The bathypelagic zone extends from 1000 to 4000 m deep in oceans while the abyssopelagic zone extends from 4000 to 6000 m deep in oceans.  

Since the abyssopelagic zone is located deeper than the bathypelagic zone, the weight of water present above it is greater than in the bathypelagic zone.  

The more water present above the abyssopelagic zone exerts more pressure on the abyssopelagic zone. This is why water pressure is greater in the abyssopelagic zone.

How does the genotype of a bacterium determine its phenotype? Use the terms gene, mRNA, ribosome, and polypeptide in your answer
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Typically, the genotype is encoded in the DNA by the gene; this gene in the DNA will then undergo the process of transcription and the information in the gene will be transcripted into mRNA. The mRNA will then undergo the process of translation and the information in the mRNA will  be translated into a polypeptide chiefly by the action of ribosome. Thus, bacteria with different genotypes will have different protein which automatically means that they will have different phenotypes.
