after watching the film, Blue Planet by BBC, i saw a lot of weird creatures down there. some are tiny and transparent. i am wondering, those transparent creatures with such thin skin, how can they survive such intense water pressure in the deep ocean?

  1. evolution


  2. over time there body developed and evolved to stand pressure of the ocean. also scientist think these animals were once HUGE before. they think since there food sources evolved into faster more smarter prey they needed to evovle into smaller more compact preditors. so when they started to scavenge deeper into the ocean there bodys quickly evoloved. thats why many animals donw there are either small, thin, and transparent. and not fleshy like many animals such as sharks stingrays ect.

  3. it's their nature like some germs survive everywhere.

  4. its the high pressure that makes them so tiny!
