Benthic Zone

The bottom of an ocean, lake or pond, where little or no sunlight reaches

Real World Example

Imagine trying to find something in a cluttered attic without a light source. Just like the attic, the benthic zone is a place where light is scarce, making it difficult to see and explore. In both scenarios, the lack of light leads to a mysterious environment; in the attic, you rely on touch and memory to navigate, while in the benthic zone, organisms have adapted to survive in darkness, often relying on senses other than sight.
