The epipelagic zone of the ocean is the zone that receives the most sunlight (option C).

What are the zones of the ocean?

The ocean is a large body of water separating the continents.

The ocean water column is made up of five zones as follows:

  • The sunlight zone (epipelagic)
  • The twilight zone (mesopelagic)
  • The midnight zone (bathypelagic)
  • The abyssal zone (abyssopelagic)
  • The hadal zone (trenches)

The epipelagic zone is the upper layer of the ocean, also known as the sunlit or euphotic zone. Because water strongly absorbs light, sunlight penetrates only to depths of about 200 meters. It is the part of the ocean where photosynthesis is possible.

Therefore, the most sunlit zone is the epipelagic zone.
