TEXTO 3
More than 70% of our planet is a continuous body of water divided into several main oceans and some smaller seas. What is even more surprising is that so far we know just a little about what goes on in the depths. For sure there are unknown creatures that have existed for millions of years down there! We humans definitely know mainly about see life in the most accessible areas, where people go scuba diving, for example. These areas are full of life because sunlight can easily penetrate the surface.
However, in an area known as the “Twilight Zone”, because of its darkness and mystery, there is as whole other world which up till now we know very little about. Since sunlight does not reach these depths, the Twilight Zone is dark and inhabited by fish that produce their own light. These fish can usually eat animals much large than themselves because of their predatory skills. Their teeth are sharp and large as well as their jaws and stomachs, that are also expandable that´s why their mouth and stomach can stretch and become bigger than the rest of their body!
