Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
A

While most sunlight is absorbed in the upper layers, some wavelengths of the visible spectrum (particularly blue light) can penetrate to these depths. These organisms do not receive UV or infrared radiations, as those are filtered out much higher in the water column.
