    About 60 percent of the ocean is a cold, dark region that spans down to 11,000 meters. This zone is known as the deep ocean, and though it seems like an inhospitable and remote corner of the planet, it is actually one of the greatest habitats on Earth. Lidia Lins explores how so many species thrive in this mysterious underwater world.
    Lesson by Lidia Lins, animation by Viviane Leezer.

    It's odd that in these dark depths, the inhabitants still rely on vision to function. You'd think they'd use something else, like echolocation. But nope, they use their eyes.

      Their eyes are very small. They usually use other senses like that one along their lateral lines that helps them detect changes in water currents. I think

      EnderStar501
      The Colossal Squid has one of the largest eyes in the animal kingdom. Also consider that most escape (Vampire Squid) and prey attracting (Angler) methods are entirely dependent on the prey's dependence on sight. Then again, not enough is known about abyssal creatures to know if they rely on lateral lines or alternative senses like electroreception.

      thats what i think at times. i mean didn't life first start in the water? so whose to say there isn't another type of humanoid species that started down there as well. especially when you consider the head start they had with evolution. unless i just sound like an idiot... lol but it would be amazing tho.

      I think regardless, they wouldn't evolve much as there are less evolutionary stress and not much energy source available. Also, not being able to see much around you doesn't provoke much curiosity.

      @obscurelobster 8 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      I think given the scope of this video they did pretty good because honestly chemosynthesis in the ocean floor vent biomes deserves an entire video of its own. Especially since we think those environments might simulate the early earth and the archaea there might resemble the earliest pre-oxygen era creatures.

      why

    • @fatdog1763
      @fatdog1763 8 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Because they feed deepwater ecosystems entirely devoid of sunlight. No marine snow, no photosynthesis, nothing but the mineral vents from the Earth's core! There is also the brine seas that are essentially water to the ocean's air, and cover vast areas of the sea floor (and also host ecosystems devoid of sunlight).

    • @pramitbanerjee
      @pramitbanerjee 8 ปีที่แล้ว +65

      Christopher Lie increased ocean acidity could be a factor, as well as changes in the ecosystems of fish that lives in the surface. We all know ecosystems are linked, if you mess up one part the whole system might not be able to fix itself and become a disaster

    • @christopherlie3590
      @christopherlie3590 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      +pramitbanerjee Oh, right. Didn't think about that. But I'm still unsure if this has caused much extinction for the creatures living in the deep ocean.

    • @pramitbanerjee

    What would happen if any of these animals living so down below would come to the surface or somewhere closer to surface water area? Would the lack of pressure affect them in any way? What about increased Oxygen into the water and sunlight? Will that confuse them or even kill them?

      @Kakashikewl 8 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Could you explain? Is that the "
      The lack of pressure will transform some molecules in the animal from the liquid in the gaseous phase" part?

    • @Kakashikewl
      @Kakashikewl 8 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Oh wait, Blob fish! I thought you were talking about the Balloon fish. My bad. Well, I'd assume they're dead cause they look that way. But is there any transformation that their bodies overwent after they got surfaced or that's the same way they looked when they were on the bottom of the ocean? Cause otherwise you haven't really answered much of my question.

    • @Kakashikewl
      @Kakashikewl 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Carl von Herrlichingen Also, Carl, thank you for your explanation! It's true what you said in that last part. The lady in the video is saying that Jellyfish can migrate back and forth (or should I say above and bellow) due to the fact that they're made out of 90+% water so they can withstand huge amounts of pressure. Idk about these molecules you were talking about though but it might be true.

    • @edwardrobinson2853
      @edwardrobinson2853 8 ปีที่แล้ว +35

      Ok so basically when molecules are under immense pressures such as those found in the deep ocean things which would normally expand out and become gases are confined in the liquid state as the pressure from all around does not permit their molecules to move sufficiently far apart. When you remove this pressure the organism's tissues would expand drastically as they are no longer being pushed inwards by the huge water outside their body.

    And yet there is an absolutely abysmal lack of deep sea documentaries on Netflix. There are maybe two, one of which is just an episode of a series.

    • @Arlong39
      @Arlong39 8 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Heh. Abysmal.
      On a serious note, perhaps a lack of such documentaries is because these deep-sea expeditions require a lot of funding for proper working equipment. And even after that, the animals might get stressed from the artificial lighting (unless you're using those night vision device). In fact, the very presence of the camera, if noticed, might trigger stress to the organism, defeating the purpose of observing them in their natural environment.
      tl;dr, it's a high-risk-high-reward thing, and not many people are willing to take that chance.
      Also I just realized you said deep sea documentaries in general, so I apologize if I went way off the tangent here.

    The animals in the deep ocean are not unworldly or unearthly, they have been there a long time. We have just now, within the last 100 years, started exploring the deep ocean. Some creatures may have been around longer than humans. I do have a question: When bring a creature up from the depths, would not its body , because of the pressure difference, start to expand and finally explode?

    I always wondered if there really is "no light" at the bottom of the ocean. Reason being, Amblyopsidae are a type of fish found in caves where all sunlight is blocked off so they don't have any eyes at all, yet fish and other animals at the bottom of the ocean do. So if we know that the cave fish don't have any physical eyes because no sunlight at all goes into the cave, why do fish at the bottom of the ocean have eyes? My theory is that they CAN see, their eyes can see more of the light spectrum than we can so while we see complete darkness they can see everything. If anyone knows of any official theories like this please let me know because I'd love to research this.

      Revi M Fadli I feel like even then the ocean doesn't have enough natural light (other than the sun) for fish in the bottom of the ocean to keep their eyes after all these years, but it does sound like a plausible explanation

      It will drown to the bottom very bottom of the deep ocean,for example if a whale dies it will drown and it will be a food source for animals like spider crabs,some sharks,other marine animals that are at the deep bottom.

      because they live in a habitat more and more alien to our environment. Creatures that live in different environments will look different(penguins in the south pole vs lizards in a desert ECT).
      Deep ocean creatures live in such a foreign and alien environment to us that they are foreign themselves.

We are so excited about discovering something specially above rather than under think about the stuff we can use if scientist first discover the ocean. My point is we can explore what we have here on our planet theres still so many mysteries hiding and waiting for us to see.

    2:22 that theory of camouflage make not much sense to me, what if the predator is above or at the same level than him? It would attract predators. In a dark place, I think not shining would be the best camouflage, light would just make him more visible

      @burt591 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I know they can use their other senses instead of sight, but when we are talking about camouflage we are talking precisely about hiding from their sight. And using light would do exactly the opposite

    • @AleksandrKramarenko
      @AleksandrKramarenko 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Pre-human rates of extinction were about 1 species out of the 10 million a year. Currently the rate of extinctions is about 1000x the pre-human rate. And no, it is not a coincidence, it is our doing. If you disagree please supply examples of your points and proof as well instead of telling my family line to go extinct.

      Try Green Lake, Austria! The water is crystal-clear. That's because it is a snowmelt lake that only forms in May-June. Because it is just the right temperature and so clear, all the plants and grass and stuff that it submerges stay alive, despite being underwater.
