Where in the ocean are the majority of marine organisms found?
coastal habitats and coral reefs
Due to biological uptake, the photic zone has relatively low layers of nutrient concentrations. As a result, phytoplankton don’t receive enough nutrients due to high water-column stability . The spacial distribution of organisms can be controlled by a number of factors including physical: temperature, hydrostatic pressure, turbulent mixing such as the upward turbulent flux of inorganic nitrogen across the nutricline  , as well as chemical: oxygen, trace elements, as well as biological: grazing, migrations. Upwelling carries nutrients from the deep waters into the photic zone to strengthen phytoplankton growth. Processes including resuspension; the remixing and upwelling eventually bring nutrient rich wastes back into the photic zone. The Ekman transport additionally brings more nutrients to the photic zone. Nutrient pulse frequency affects the phytoplankton competition. Photosynthesis produces ninety percent of Earth’s gaseous oxygen and phytoplankton, playing a major role, produces more of it. Being the first link in the food chain, what happens to phytoplankton creates a rippling effect to other species. Besides phytoplankton, many other animals also take home in this zone and utilize these nutrients. Majority of ocean life occur in the photic zone, the smallest ocean zone in water volume. It can be seen that the photic zone, although small, has a large impact to those who reside in it.
Where is the zone in the ocean that the majority of marine organisms are found?

More than 200,000 marine species have been documented, and perhaps two million marine species are yet to be documented.
Marine life
The photic zone, euphotic zone, epipelagic zone, or sunlight zone is the uppermost layer of a body of water that receives sunlight, allowing phytoplankton to perform photosynthesis. It undergoes a series of physical, chemical, and biological processes that supply nutrients into the upper water column
Photic zone
More than 200,000 marine species have been documented, with perhaps two million marine species yet to be. The vast majority of these organisms are found on coastal habitats and coral reefs and the ocean's photic zone, its uppermost level, which receives sunlight and allows phytoplankton to perform photosynthesis.
