Question

The lantern fish is a marine animal that has the unique ability to produce its own light. Why would these organisms most likely be found in deeper ocean zones?

Answer 1

Answer:

The organisms like Lantern fish is found mostly in the deep ocean zones. This is because these zones have no or very less light.

The ocean is divided into various zones, out of those there are very few zones that receive light. Say epipelagic zone receives maximum light.

But the zones that lies at the bottom of the ocean does not receive sunlight. So, the aquatic animals living there must have their own source of light to see objects there.  

Answer 2

Bioluminescenct organisms exist in deeper ocean depths because the light is unable to reach them.
