How strong is the pressure in the depths of the ocean? Why don t whales get crushed by pressure?

The pressure on the oceans is enormousThe ocean occupies 70% of the earth's surface and is the main component of the earth, but people's understanding of the ocean is very scarce, and a large part of the reason is that the pressure in the depths of the ocean is too strong to carry out scientific research actions, such as in the Mariana Trench, the deepest known ocean depth, the atmospheric pressure that needs to be borne in the Mariana Trench is 1078 standard atmospheric pressure, and the equivalent substitution is about 270,000 adults stacked on your body, not to mention the human body. Even the hardest steel in the world can be crushed in an instant, which shows how terrifying the pressure in the depths of the ocean can be. <>

Whales have a unique body structureAlthough whales can live in the depths of the ocean, they will not reach the depth of the Mariana Trench, among which the deepest can dive to the depths of sperm whales such as sperm whales, which are almost the limit when diving to 1000 meters, and the depth of adult males can only be 10 meters, whales can live at 1000 meters underwater and its unique body structure is related, whales are generally large, with heavy fat to resist the pressure of the ocean, and whale muscles and bones are very tough, It can effectively protect the whale's organs from the influence of deep-sea pressure, and at the same time, the whale can effectively reduce the damage caused by pressure by adjusting the water pressure inside and outside through the organs. <>

Mankind's exploration of the ocean has not yet begunAlthough human beings can build submarines to explore underwater, but the general submarine can only operate at a depth of 600 meters underwater, and some special scientific research submarines can dive to a very deep height, such as China's Jiaolong can dive to a depth of 7062 meters, but the ability to move will be greatly reduced, and the explorable area of the ocean is too large, and the area that can be explored by submarines made by humans is not even the tip of the iceberg, but with the rapid development of human science and technology, I believe that in the future, the secrets of the ocean will also be discovered by humans. <>

The pressure in the depths of the ocean is tens of thousands of N because whales' lungs are actually foldable, and they come up every once in a while to breathe.

The pressure in the depths of the ocean is so strong that it is even capable of crushing submarines. Because whales have a lung that can be folded, they are very resistant to stress.

As the sea continues to go deeper, the pressure in the depths of the sea is very high, so in the deep sea, there is no life in many places. The place where the whale is located is also not the deep sea.

Because whales are very large and have to eat a lot of food. If these foods are not digested in time, methane will form in the whale's body, so it will be easy**.

Because after it dies, the whale has no one to resist the pressure of the lungs, so the corpse will **.

Because when the whale's body is decomposed, it will produce a large amount of methane, and these gases will occur after reaching a certain concentration.

Because whales produce a lot of flammable gases in the process of carcass decomposition, these gases will produce **.

The reason why deep-sea fish are able to withstand so much stress is because they don't need to be stressed at all. Just like an opened can, even if it sinks to the bottom of the sea, the pressure inside and outside the can is the same, so there is no such thing as a pressure difference.

Humans depend on a gas-filled lung to survive, and on land, the internal pressure in our body is only one atmosphere, which makes us feel comfortable. However, when we dive to the bottom of the pool, our ears and nose may feel sore or uncomfortable. That is, because they contain air inside, and this discomfort comes from the fact that the air sacs in the body are flattened by the pressure of water.

Therefore, when Jiaolong is in the depths of the ocean, the most important thing is the pressure level, and every 10 meters of water depth in the ocean will increase by 1 atmosphere. At a depth of 100 meters, the pressure is about 10 atmospheres, which is 10 times greater than the pressure at sea level.

Deep-sea jellyfish. The pressure in the depths of the ocean is enormous, and if it is deep enough, the confined metal like a submarine will also be flattened. But some creatures can still survive here, because the creatures that live in the deep sea no longer have to live in gas-filled spaces like lungs or fish bladders, and their bodies are filled with water, which is difficult to compress. This, combined with their special cellular and tissue structures, allows these organisms to withstand the pressures of the deep sea.

In addition, their soft body structure allows them to remain undamaged under the pressure of high-pressure seawater. Fish in the deep sea do not have as much fat as fish in the shallow sea, and some fish do not even have fat. The low amount of gas in the body can also reduce the pressure difference, so that the body and the sea water can maintain pressure balance as much as possible.

Deep-sea fishSo, deep-sea fish have evolved a unique ecological structure in order to survive. And this problem, in fact, is to use the human way of thinking to apply to the fish, although the fish in the deep sea have made various changes in order to survive, but life will find its way out.

Because the pressure in the deep sea is very high, fish slowly evolve fish scales, and fish scales can protect fish from water pressure.

Because fish are not subjected to any pressure of injury at all, and they have adapted to life in the deep sea and have a unique body structure.

Because fish don't need to be stressed. The gills allow fish to flow seawater through their bodies without having to bear the pressure of seawater.

Whales are mammals that breathe through their lungs, and they need to inhale a lot of air on the surface before diving to be able to resist the high pressure in the deep sea, mainly because the structure of the body is relatively strong, and the lungs can withstand greater compression.

With regard to the earth we live on, this is our human home, and we humans live in this region, and it is also the only home of our human race. On the earth we live in, there are many geographical conditions and natural climates inside, which are created by nature, and human beings are only slowly adapting, including other animals. And the reason why we humans can have such a powerful brain is precisely because of the environmental climate.

And what we now know as the largest mammal in the world.

Whales are also changed by the environment. So about whales can make it to the bottom of the sea for 10,000 miles? Are they harmed by the pressure in the water? The answers to this are as follows. <>

1. Whales cannot dive to the bottom of the sea for 10,000 meters. First of all, the first point is that whales will not dive to 10,000 meters under the sea, because there is no food in 10,000 meters of the seabed, and food is an important driving force for many animals to move in a more dangerous direction, but at a depth of 10,000 meters under the sea, it is obvious that there will not be many creatures. Take the blue whale, the world's largest whale, which feeds on the world's smallest krill.

The ridiculous thing is that the largest animal in the world, the smallest animal in the world, is also the natural law of the entire ecosystem.

There is not much food to meet the needs of whales in the 10,000 meters under the seabed, so whales will not dive into such a life. <>

Second, the huge body can also be damaged. Secondly, another point is that the whale's huge body will still be damaged, the deepest one of the whales, the diving position is about 7 kilometers, and 7 kilometers is the maximum limit that the whale can bear. <>

3. The pressure of 10,000 meters is a pressure cooker.

10,000 times the pressure released. Finally, the pressure of 10,000 meters under the sea is about 10,000 times the pressure released by our usual pressure cooker. Because 10,000 meters under the sea it will bear a lot of seawater weight, such a pressure, humans or other animals are basically unable to bear, so in the 10,000 meters of the seabed, there will not be too many creatures.

Whales can reach the bottom of the sea up to 10,000 meters, and they will not be crushed to death by the pressure in the water. Because there is pressure in the sea, the deeper the pressure, the greater the pressure, but whales are a product of the sea, so they are born to adapt to the pressure in the sea.

No. Because whales have huge pressure in their bodies and can adapt to the deep-sea environment, whales can reach the bottom of the sea up to 10,000 meters and will not be crushed to death by the pressure in the water.

It should not be, the large size indicates that there must be a strong air pressure regulation system, and the whale is a mammal, which breathes by the lungs, and it is more difficult than him to dive below 10,000 meters.
