Why are green plants not found below a depth of 100 meters in oceans?
No green plants are at the bottom of the ocean because the sun can't get down there to feed the part of the plant cell that makes plants green.
Would you name at least 6 commonly known ocean plants?
Seaweed, seagrass, kelp, green algae, red algae and brown algae are six commonly-known ocean plants. Plants, or producers, are vital to the health of ocean ecosystems and serve as a food source to higher organisms.
Do ocean plants have vascular structure?
plants that live in the ocean. They are living plants.
What are the native plants of the ocean?
what are the native plants in the ocean
What are non-flowering plants in the ocean?
Kelp, seaweed and algae are ocean plants. They are needed to feed ocean fish and mammals.
Why green plants are unable to live deep in the ocean because the?
Not enough light penetrates to allow photosynthesis.
Why cant green plants live deep in the ocean?
because they need the sunlight

What is the plants in ocean?
obama is green
Explain your observation in nature your reason for the absence of no green plants in the depth of the ocean where it is always dark?
Plants are green because of pigments, including chlorophylls, that absorb light for photosynthesis. In deep parts of the ocean, where it is always dark, photosynthesis cannot take place (there is no light), so there is no need for these green pigments in plants that may exist there. Therefore any plants that do exist there would not be green, as production of chlorophylls would be a waste of energy and resources.
Can green plants live at great depths in the ocean?
no
Do plants have chlorophyll at the bottom of the ocean?
If they are green, then yes.
Why does the shallow ocean zone have many plants and animals?
it has so many plants because the plants can do photosynthesis. unlike in the deep ocean with no sunlight
On early earth what happened to the rocks in the ocean as the number of photosynthesis bacteria increased?
As the number of plants that photosynthesize increased, the rocks in the ocean became covered with these primitive plants. They looked green due to the presence of the plants.
What are 5 plants in the ocean?
Well let me think... NOTHING!! Green plants only grow near the surface of the ocean. The deeper the water, the less plants are found. This is because green plants need sunlight. The sunlight totally disappears and the plants cannot live. Try something similar yourself. Put one plant in a sunny spot and another plant of the same variety in a dark cupboard and leave them for 7 days. The plant in the cupboard will be lighter in color and wilted.
Why is salinity higher in the top layer of the oceans?
Salinity vs. depth profiles are different in different parts of the ocean, so there is really no one correct answer to this question.
