Answer:

Three factors are used.

The availability  of sunlight.

The distance from shore and

The  water depth.

Explanation:

<u>Availability of Sunlight </u>

The photic zone is the upper part of the ocean  into which sunlight penetrates.

<u>Distance from Shore </u>

The intertidal zone is the strip of land where the  land and ocean meet and overlap, or the zone  between high and low tides.

The neritic zone is the marine-life zone that  extends from the low-tide line out to the shelf  break.

The oceanic zone is the marine-life zone  beyond the continental shelf.

<u>Water Depth</u>

The pelagic zone is open zone of any depth.  Animals in this zone swim or float freely.

The benthic zone is the marine-life zone that  includes any sea-bottom surface regardless of  its distance from shore.

The abyssal zone is a subdivision of the benthic  zone characterized by extremely high pressures,  low temperatures, low oxygen, few nutrients,  and no sunlight
