What is Plankton? Plankton

Plankton is Plankton being shown A small microscopic plants and animals, that drifts suspended in the water. More Plankton

Zooplankton Zooplankton consists on small suspended animals- numerous tiny crustaceans, rotifers, some insect larvae, and other invertebrates. Antarctic Plankton

Phytoplankton! The collection of plantlike organisms in water. Phytoplankton Organic Phytoplankton

Saltwater plankton Little white organisms that live and swim in the sea. Some saltwater plankton is also known as krill. Whales eat plankton. They have a shrimp like structure for a body and white skin. Not all saltwater plankton are krill. Whale Shark Eating plankton (little white flakes) Saltwater Plankton

Ecosystem It is now widely accepted that global pollution is occurring, yet its effects on the world's largest ecosystem, the marine pelagic realm, are largely unknown. Plankton gives some fish and whales food to survive with. Plankton helps the ecosystem by eating algae so the algae’s population doesn’t build up. Ecosystem (creek) Turtle Pond with algae in the pond and plankton.
