Answer:

The area between 200 and 1,000 meters (656 and 3,280 feet) is the mesopelagic or “twilight” zone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Light intensity in this zone is severely reduced with increasing depth, so light penetration is minimal. About 20 percent of primary production from the surface falls down to the mesopelagic zone.
