7th-grade question

Deep Down in the Ocean

The Mariana trench is the deepest part of the ocean biome. It is more

than 36,000 (10,873 m) feet deep, which is about 7,000 (2,134 m) feet

deeper than Mt. Everest is tall! It is very cold in the trench. There is no

light and a great deal of pressure from the weight of the water above.

Very few animals are able to live there. Humans have only been to the

bottom of the trench two times. Once in 1960 and then again in 2012.



Why do you think humans have only been to the bottom of the

Mariana Trench twice? Use evidence from the text to support your

answer.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The main reason humans have only been to the mariana trech twice is because of the pressure in the water that increases as you go deeper. The pressure in the water is very likely to kill a human and the increase is guaranteed to cause an extremely painful death as your body will be crushed by such high pressures. Another reason is worrying about the animals that do live down in the trench. Being in the Mariana trench with limited food supply for the fishy competitors, you would be counted as one of the few food sources down there. Furthermore these are the reasons why humans have not gone down to the Mariana trench more than twice.
