Pelagic Zone. that part of a lake, sea, or ocean that is the habitat of pelagic organismsâplankton, necton, and pleuston.The pelagic zone is opposed to the benthic zone, that is, the bottom of the body of water, which is inhabited by benthos.In oceans and seas, the pelagic zone is divided horizontally into two regions: the neritic (water above the shelf) and the oceanic (all the remaining water).elagic Zone. that part of a lake, sea, or ocean that is the habitat of pelagic organismsâplankton, necton, and pleuston.
Organisms of the Pelagic Zone. The organisms that make their home in the pelagic zone can be divide into three types, phytoplankton, zooplankton and nekton. Phytoplankton-these primary producers are the basis of the ocean's food chain.pipelagic, or Sunlit Zone-this is the topmost layer of the pelagic zone, from the surface to a depth of about 200 meters (660 ft). It receives enough sunlight to support photosynthetic organisms such as seaweed and phytoplankton, and also has a high level of dissolved oxygen due to the action of the waves.
