Answer:

The answer is Intertidal, Neritic and Open-ocean.

Step-by-step explanation:

The main ocean zones are:

  • Intertidal zone = It is the closest to the coast. In high tide it is covered with water, and at low tide it is exposed to the air.
  • Neritic zone = It is located on the continental shelf, the water is not very deep and many nutrients and sunlight are found.
  • Open ocean zone = It is the ocean beyond the continental shelf where water is very deep and nutrients may be scarce.
