From lost shipwrecks to bizarre fish, the 深い seas are teeming with mysteries.?

Light from the sun only reaches 負かす/撃墜する to the beginning of the bathypelagic zone at 1,000 metres beneath the surface.?

Beyond this depth, 氷点の 気温s, total 不明瞭, and extreme 圧力 mean that only the most 井戸/弁護士席-adapted animals can 生き残る.

However, even at the deepest points of the ocean, in places like the Izu-Ogasawara ざん壕 south of Japan, scientists have discovered an enormous variety of life.

In the total darkness and extreme pressures of the deep sea, only strange creatures like this Bigfin squid in the Gulf of Mexico are well adapted enough to survive
