Answer

Whales and giant squid can live in the photic zone.* **Whales:** Many whale species spend at least some time in the photic zone, surfacing to breathe and sometimes feeding on organisms that live there.* **Giant Squid:** While they are known to inhabit the deep ocean, giant squid are also found in the upper, light-penetrating layers of the ocean (the photic zone), likely following their prey.* **Horses:** Horses are terrestrial mammals and do not live in the ocean at all.* **Anglerfish:** The anglerfish depicted in "Finding Nemo" is a deep-sea anglerfish, living well below the photic zone in the aphotic zone. They use bioluminescence to attract prey in the darkness.
