Question
Organisms living in ____________ are specialized for living in an environment that lacks spatial stability and offers no refuge from predation.
- Pelagic zones
- Hot water zones
- Cold water zones
- No water zones
Hint:
The column of a water body associated with water and not the shore or the sand bed.
The correct answer is: Pelagic zones
Organisms living in pelagic zones are specialized for living in an environment that lacks spatial stability and offers no refuge from predation. A very wide range of options for the niche axes that relate to habitat are provided by the variation in cover, which ranges from the open waters of lakes and sandbed streams to highly vegetated littoral zones, vegetated wetlands, and rocky streams.
