DEEP SEA
The deep sea or deep layer[1] is the lowest layer in the ocean, existing below the thermocline and
above the seabed, at a depth of 1000 fathoms (1800 m) or more. Little or no light penetrates this part
of the ocean, and most of the organisms that live there rely for subsistence on falling organic
matter produced in the photic zone. For this reason, scientists once assumed that life would be
sparse in the deep ocean, but virtually every probe has revealed that, on the contrary, life is
abundant in the deep ocean.
DEPTH
The average depth of the ocean is about 12,100 feet . The deepest part of the ocean is called
the Challenger Deep and is located beneath the western Pacific Ocean in the southern end of
the Mariana Trench, which runs several hundred kilometers southwest of the U.S. territorial
island of Guam.
