Answer:

The correct answer is attached as an image and explained below.

Explanation:

There are different zones found in a lake ecosystem or biome that are the photic, aphotic, littoral, limnetic, and benthic zones. The littoral zone is near the shore in a water body such as a lake. Sunlight penetrates this zone and helps aquatic plants present.

The limnetic zone is the photic zone that is an open area of the water body and away from the shore. Sunlight reaches to this area and it can vary in depth up to 200 meters. The aphotic area is the zone that does not get any light in it and the benthic zone is the bed of the lake.
