Life in the deep sea
Article Abstract:
Strange forms of marine life thrive in the deep waters of the ocean. These creatures have been forced to support complex adaptations to cope with lack of food, darkness and high pressure in the abyssal zone. An example is the gulper. It features a huge mouth that opens wide to swallow food much larger than itself. Another is the flashlight fish which utilized a light organ to attract mates and prey. A third form of bizarre fish is the black sea dragon. It utilizes a lighted lure to attract other fishes.
