The benthic zone is the ecological region at the lowest level of a body of
water such as an ocean or a lake, including the sediment surface and some
sub-surface layers. Organisms living in this zone are called benthos. They
generally live in close relationship with the substrate bottom; many such
organisms are permanently attached to the bottom.
These are some deep sea creatures.
Some of these animals live on the seafloor bottom.

that’s why the call

us, with long,

They grow to
lengths of 30 to
60 cm (12 -
20 inches).
Hagfish, the
clade Myxini (als
o known
as Hyperotreti),
are eel-shaped
slime-producing
marine animals
(occasionally
called slime
eels).
Nautilus is the
common name
of pelagic marin
e mollusks of
the cephalopod f
amily Nautilina,
the sole extant
family of the
super
family Nautilace
ae and of its
smaller but near
equal
suborder, Nautili
na.
Lantern
fishes (or mycto
phids, from
the Greek mykte
r, "nose"
and ophis,
"serpent") are
small mesopelag
ic fish of the
