Final answer:
Each term relates to conditions and life in aquatic biomes: Deep waters are habitats for specialized deep-sea organisms, shallow waters are crucial for young marine species, salinity and salt content influence organism adaptations, and dissolved oxygen is essential for marine life survival.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks to match each term with the related sentence based on the ecological and biological characteristics of aquatic biomes. Let's match each term:
- Deep waters: Zone where there is life even at great depths in the ocean, e.g., deep-sea chimaeras which are adapted to live thousands of feet under the ocean surface.
- Shallow waters: These are found where rivers meet the ocean; provide nourishment and shelter for young crustaceans and mollusks.
- Salinity of ocean: Organisms living here must be adapted to the salt content of the water.
- Dissolved oxygen: Water near the surface of lakes and the ocean usually has more dissolved oxygen than deeper water. Essential for survival in aquatic biomes.
- Salt content of water: Refers to the properties of marine biomes, where the water has a higher salt concentration.
- Aquatic plants don't survive: This could be due to extreme conditions such as very high salinity, which some plant species cannot tolerate.
