How wonderful is the Mariana Trench, what will it be like in the deepest part of the ocean?

The Mariana Trench borders Guam, Japan and surrounds the Pacific Ocean, with clear waters and abundant marine species. Someone once set a Guinness World Record in the Mariana Trench, which is the deepest human diving at 113m. I know this record is difficult, because people who dive to a certain depth will easily lose the ability to distinguish directions. And it is easy to have hallucinations, and in serious cases, it may not be able to return to the ground. Novice divers need a marker to guide the direction, otherwise they will consume a lot of oxygen and cannot return to the surface.

If you dive further, the extremely high water pressure will crush the steel plate, and if you go down 10,000 meters, you will find that the surrounding is pitch black, you can't see your fingers, and you can't see anything. Because there is no light, some parts of the creatures here gradually degenerate until they disappear. The creatures here have no eyes but their sense of smell is very sensitive.

If you dive further, you will find that there are fewer and fewer creatures , and none of them have glasses, but they can emit light. This is because the special living environment allows them to obtain light-emitting organs. The function of this light-emitting organ is that it can be used to illuminate the direction of travel, while also attracting the attention of prey and telling predators to stay away from them. The water pressure here is very high. If you go down without protection facilities, it may cause comminuted fractures or even death.

If you dive again, you will reach the forbidden line of life. There are very few creatures living here, because the high water pressure here exceeds the limit of any creature. But in this extremely harsh environment, the ancient snail fish lives. This is the deepest fish in the world. It can withstand water pressure beyond imagination and its cold resistance is also very powerful. Because the deeper the water is, the lower the temperature will be.

Scientists have recently discovered a white creature called the Mariana Trench lionfish . You don’t have to think about it to know that it is active near the Mariana Trench. Interestingly, its muscle state is a mixture of liquid and solid. Scientists have designed submarines based on this principle and want to develop liquids that allow people to breathe freely. In order to ensure that the driver has fresh breathing air in the boat, he normally drives the submarine to complete underwater scientific research projects.

What would happen if the submarine continued to dive? What greets it is not only the high pressure and dark environment, but also the constant heat. It is close to the core area. After they are heated by the magma, they will form heat waves. The water pressure environment is different from the atmospheric environment, it is higher than the atmospheric environment. Scientists were also surprised to discover the existence of liquid carbon dioxide.

Therefore, if you dive further down, you will reach the forbidden land of life. Since photosynthesis and dark light cannot be carried out here, it cannot be assembled into organic matter, and there is no food source for creatures, so most animals do not exist. There are only some small creatures here, such as white shrimp and white crab. and some small worms.
