The moon orbits Earth at an avaerage speed of 2,288 miles per hour (3,683 kilometres per hour). The Moon travels at different speeds during different parts of its orbit. It moves slowest when it is at furthest distance from Earth. The Moon moves fastest in its orbit when it is closest to Earth.
Some animals travel in shallower waters at times. These include larger fish, such as swordfish, chain catsharks and cuttlefish. Several types of eels, including wolf eels and snipe eels, can also be found in the mesopelagic zone. Some herbivores may venture into the mesopelagic zone at times, but do not stay there due to lack of food.
Bathyal zone. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The layers of the pelagic zone. The bathyal zone or bathypelagic â from Greek Î²Î±Î¸ÏÏ (bathÃ½s), deep â (also known as midnight zone) is the part of the pelagic zone that extends from a depth of 1000 to 4000 metres (3300 to 13000 feet) below the ocean surface.It lies between the mesopelagic above, and the abyssopelagic below.any forms of nekton live in the bathyal zone, such as squid, large whales, and octopuses, but this zone is difficult for fish to live in. Sponges, brachiopods, sea stars, and echinoids are also common in the bathyal zone.
