The freshwater biome is defined as the biome that comprises the water bodies such as lake, pond, rivers and wetlands and where the concentration of salt is almost less than 1%. It occupies near about 20-25% of the total earth's surface.
Generally, the characteristics of the photic zone of a freshwater biome include-
- It forms the upper layer of the freshwater body, ranging from the surface of the water up to a certain depth.
- It is the layer where the sunlight can easily penetrate.
- The photosynthesis process is driven out extensively by the aquatic plants existing in this layer.
- The primary producers are present in this zone that provides the food to almost all the freshwater organisms.
- In this zone, the rate of respiration is equal to the rate of photosynthesis.
