Open ocean of any depth, where animals swim or float freely, is called the pelagic zone.
Hope this helped! :)
When prolonged and excessive rainfall the more water percolates and the water table (below the earth surface/soil) rises. The higher the water table the more the possibility increases for a spring to form in the sense that it would now be easier for the water to find a means of escaping the underground through perhaps a crack or a cave, etc.
Natural selection is basically when organisms with the best traits survive and pass on their good traits to their offspring so that they will adapt easily and survive. Organisms who do not have ‘good traits’ that help them adapt and escape predators will be killed or eaten before they reproduce.
So in the end, natural selection is a form of evolution that allows the ‘fittest’ animals to survive and reproduce, while weeding out the unfit.
