Based on your knowledge of ocean chemistry, predict the feeding mode and size of organisms found in the deep layers of the ocean
ASHA 777 [7]

In the deep layers of the ocean, various distinct kinds of species are found like fangtooth fish and vampire squid, to sea urchins and coffinfish.  

One of the probable adaptation, which is not fully understood in the deep sea is gigantism. This refers to the ability of animals to become highly enormous in size. A well-known illustration is a giant squid, and others, like giant isopod, the kings of herrings selfish, and the colossal squid.  

One of the possible reason of gigantism is the tendency of the species in the deep sea to live for long years, that is, for decades or for even centuries. As food is not abundant in the deep zones, thus deep sea creatures have evolved some interesting mechanisms of feeding.  

In the non-existence of photosynthesis, the majority of food comprises of detritus, that is, the decaying leftovers of algae, microbes, animals, and plants from the upper layers of the ocean. Apart from that, the corpses of large animals, like whales that sink to the bottom give irregular but huge feasts for deep-sea animals.

Holding your breath while ascending can lead to: Select one: A rupture of the tiny air sacks in the lungs, known as alveoli. A l
julsineya [31]

Holding your breath while ascending can lead to all of the above options.

Surfacing excessively fast or holding the breathing while swimming to the surface can make the air in the lungs expand which is known as pneumonic barotrauma. This might break lung tissue, which can prompt gas bubbles to be delivered into the blood vessel dissemination (arterial gas embolism).

The air in the lungs becomes risky when an individual ascends. On the off chance that somebody holds their breath while rising to the surface, the lungs and the air inside them extend as the water pressure decreases. Since that air has no place to escape, it continues to expand against the walls of the lungs, no matter what the organ's capacity.
