Just like the distant galaxies, the deep seas continue to bring us wonder and awe.
Deep sea fish tend to be tiny and soft, with little bones. Several species of deep-sea fish have evolved the ability to produce their own light, which they use bioluminescence to emit. These glowing organs attract both prey and prospective partners.We’ve talked about how generally unknown the deep seas are. But the creatures we are familiar with, who make a home in these dark, cold depths, have peculiar appearances due to the extreme conditions of their habitat.
Younger, smaller fangtooth fish filter zooplankton from the water and adults feed on fish, crustaceans, and squid.In proportion to their body size, their teeth are the biggest of any marine animal. Special pouches on the roof of its mouth prevent the teeth from piercing the fish's brain when its mouth is closed.
This quality results from minuscule hexagonal crystal plates that reflect specific wavelengths of light. Because of this, depending on the lighting, the crustacean might become undetectable to the naked sight. The lower jaw of a stoplight loosejaw is approximately one-quarter as long as the rest of the animal, and it is permanently wide open. A broad gape and a propensity for the mouth to hang open make this fish an outstanding specimen. They have numerous rows ofthat assist in transporting food up the esophagus and a huge, fang-like set of teeth towards the front of the jaw.
Studies have found that this translucent membrane covering their heads helps to prevent the siphonophores' stings from reaching their eyes. They share an ancestor with crabs and spiders, but sea spiders have been evolving on their own for hundreds of millions of years. Scientists have even discovered a sea spider larva that is 500 million years old.The frilled shark is one of the scariest deep sea creatures due to its prehistoric-looking eel-like body and snake-like head. It has extremely long, thin teeth with three cusps.
