Answer:

sunlit zone or the euphotic zone

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest layer of the world's seas is washed in daylight during the daytime. This brilliant sea layer is known as the sunlit zone or the euphotic zone (euphotic signifies "sufficiently bright" in Greek) or the epipelagic zone (epipelagic signifies "upon the ocean")
