Deep sea fish have different adaptations in their proteins, anatomical structures, and metabolic systems to survive in the Deep sea, where the inhabitants have to withstand great amount of hydrostatic pressure. While other factors like food availability and predator avoidance are important, the deep sea organisms must have the ability to maintain well-regulated metabolic system in the face of high pressures. In order to adjust for the extreme environment, these organisms have developed unique characteristics.
