Question
Chapter 20.11, Problem 2MQ
Summary Introduction
The prokaryotic cells are abundant in the open ocean reduced with the depth. The average number of cells in the surface of water is about 106/ml. However, below 1000 m the total number of cells falls between 103 and 105/ml. By using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technology, the distribution of Archaea and Bacteria with the depth has been handled in the pelagic waters.
