Answer;

It varies with the total volume of the fluid.

Explanation; Pressure and depth have a directly proportional relationship, due to the greater column of fluid that pushes down on an object submersed. The relationship between pressure and depth may be looked at with respect to the relationship between pressure and volume, as the column of fluid has a specific volume and corresponding to depth.
