Would you expect to find plantlike organisms below 1000 meters in the ocean Why or why not?

Below 1000 meters in the ocean, you would not typically find plantlike organisms like those found in shallower waters. This is primarily due to the lack of sunlight, which limits photosynthesis, the process that most plantlike organisms rely on for energy. The deep ocean is primarily inhabited by organisms that have adapted to survive in dark, high-pressure environments, such as chemosynthetic bacteria and various types of zooplankton and deep-sea fish.
