Answer:

The answer is Non-photosynthetic because very little light is available; small because there are so few nutrients.

Explanation:

Very little to no light reaches below 200 m, but below 1000m it's completely dark. Therefore, photosynthesis is impossible, autotroph organisms depend on organic matter and they obtain energy through chemosynthesis. Most organisms are small and passive, they don't waste energy in hunting, but they wait for the food to reach them. Although there's a condition called deep-sea gigantism, it's due to the high pressure and not to the low salinity. These gigantic organisms are mainly composed of water and that way they avoid being compressed, like organisms with air cavities like humans.

fredd [130]

Answer:

The gametophyte generation is longest and largest phase

Explanation:

Bryophytes evolved from the algae group of the plants which were aquatic environment. The Chara algae which grow in the tidal region evolved to form the first plants which could grow in both water and land called bryophytes.

The bryophytes although obtained nutrition from the terrestrial environment but their gametophytic stage was dependent on the water for the fertilization.

The gametophyte which produces the gametes were larger and independent as compared to the sporophyte which was small. The gametophytes formed the dominant phase of the life cycle of the bryophytes.

Thus, The gametophyte generation is longest and largest phase is correct.
