Depths at Which Four Deep-Sea Fish Species Live Depth below the Species ocean surface Footballfish 200–1,000 meters Southern stoplight loosejaw 500–2,000 meters Black seadevil 250–2,000 meters Bollons’ rattail 300–800 meters Some oceanic fish species live very deep underwater. Researchers collected data about the depths at which various species live. Based on the information in the table, at what depth does the southern stoplight loosejaw live?
Correct answer: C (parsed from the explanation — this source omits an answer key for this item)
Explanation
Choice C is the best answer. The table shows the depths below the ocean surface at which four species of deep-sea fish live. According to the table, the range of depths at which the southern stoplight loosejaw lives is 500–2,000 meters below the surface. Choice A is incorrect because the table indicates that the southern stoplight loosejaw lives 500–2,000 meters below the ocean surface, not at depths more than 2,000 meters below the surface. Choice B is incorrect because the table indicates that the southern stoplight loosejaw lives 500–2,000 meters below the ocean surface, not 150–400 meters below the surface. Choice D is incorrect because the table indicates that the southern stoplight loosejaw lives 500–2,000 meters below the ocean surface, not 250–500 meters below the surface.
