The food chain you provided contains four trophic levels. Phytoplankton represents the first trophic level as primary producers. Shrimp, which feeds on phytoplankton, is the second trophic level (primary consumers). Perch, feeding on shrimp, is the third trophic level (secondary consumers), and pike, preying on perch, is the fourth trophic level (tertiary consumers), with the osprey as a top predator potentially representing an additional level.
Yes, invertebrates such as shrimp do feed on plankton. As do other microorganisms such as copepods and amphipods.
No it's a predator feeding upon smaller fish, shrimp and crab. These feed upon zooplankton which in turn eat phytoplankton. These are known as trophic levels. The Phytoplankton would be a primary producer. and a comsumer
