What happens to the amount of light as you go deeper into aquatic system

Light bends when it hits water so it can only travel so far. So the deeper you go the less light there will be.

Explanation:

The ocean is broken into three zones based on intensity and light level. The upper 200 meters (656 feet) of the ocean is called the euphotic, or "sunlight," zone. This zone includes the vast preponderance of commercial fisheries and is home to many preserved marine mammals and sea turtles.Only a small amount of light penetrates behind this depth.The zone between 200 meters (656 feet) and 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) is usually regarded to as the “Twilight” zone, but is authorized the dysphotic zone. In this zone, the intensity of light rapidly consumes as depth increases. Such a miniscule amount of light penetrates beyond a depth of 200 meters that photosynthesis is no eternal possible.The aphotic, or “midnight,” zone survives in depths below 1,000 meters (3,280 feet). Sunlight does not perceive to these depths and the zone is immersed in darkness.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

A particular population limiting factor or factors must have been removed

Explanation:

The population of the birds must have been kept between 30 and 50 individuals by population limiting factors such as the presence of predators within the community or competition for resources such as food or spaces.

For the population to shoot up to 90 all of a sudden, it may be that one or more of the population limiting factors has been removed from the population. <u>It could be that a major predator has been removed from the community or the competition for food/space is now significantly reduced due to more food/space in the community. </u>
