I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The energy acquisition in the deep sea differ from energy acquisition near the ocean’s surface by the fact that organisms in the deep sea do not have direct access to sunlight. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

The correct answer is (c) Organisms in the deep sea do not have direct access to sunlight.

The sunlight can reach only up to several meter in depth inside the ocean. The organisms that rely on the top layer of the ocean receives sunlight and the organism that lie deep inside the ocean cannot receive sunlight. They use chemosynthesis rather than photosynthesis to make their own food or rely on other organisms for their food.
