The Cocos Plate is located at the following approximate latitude and longitude: 1. 10°S and 100°W 2. 20°N and 100°E 3. 10°N and 100°W 4. 30°N and 130°E​

answer: - few nutrients

high pressure

low temperatures

explanation: 1. few nutrients:   open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.2. high pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.3. ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface. 4. varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.5. low temperatures:   the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°c to an average of 17°c

what's the question ?

i believe the answer would be b. hope it : )
