深海生物

Description

Explore life in the deep sea: animals that make their own light (bioluminescence), creatures adapted to crushing pressure and total darkness, and hydrothermal vents where life thrives without sunlight

Mastery Evidence
  • ✓ Define bioluminescence as the ability of some deep-sea creatures to produce their own light
  • ✓ Describe at least two adaptations deep-sea animals have for life in darkness and pressure
  • ✓ Explain that hydrothermal vents support life without sunlight through chemical energy
Assessment Prompt

If your child saw footage of glowing deep-sea creatures, could they explain how some animals make their own light and why life can exist even in the deepest, darkest parts of the ocean?
