The Mariana Trench reaches 1,580 miles and 2,550 kilometers and a maximum width of 69 kilometers or 43 miles. The maximum known depth is 10,984 meters or 36,037 feet. The water pressure at the bottom of the trench is incredible, more than 1,071 times the normal atmospheric pressure at sea level. Living in this excellent habitat are some of the world’s most exciting and surprising animals. .
Angler Fish
The angler fish is a well-known marine creature thanks to the success of the film Finding Nemo. It’s a reasonably famous creature that’s quite distinctive due to the light protruding from its head. It has an unusually shaped body and sharp teeth. The females usually grow to around 8 inches long, and the males to only an inch in length. The males fuse themselves the females, turning two individuals into one.
Frilled Shark
The frilled shark was discovered in the 19th . It is often referred to as a “living fossil” due to its eery appearance and the shape of its mouth.
The shark has an eel-like body that’s dark brown to grey in color and amphistyly, referring to the articulation of the jaws to the head. Their teeth are widely spaced between 19 and 28 in the upper jaw and 21 to 29 in the lower jaw.
They live near the ocean floor, such as in and around the Mariana Trench, and near to biologically productive areas.
Dumbo Octopus
The dumbo octopus, also known as grimpotheuthis, is a genus of pelagic umbrella octopuses.
The dumbo octopus is small compared to other octopods, averaging between 20 and 30 centimeters. The octopus gelatinous body allows it to exist at the highly pressured depths it prefers. The extreme pressure keeps its body together, and if brought to the surface, its body would not be able to work correctly.
