Plankton is based on well,,,, Plankton. Plankton is the small and microscopic organisms drifting or floating in the sea or fresh water, consisting chiefly of diatoms, protozoans, small crustaceans, and the eggs and larval stages of larger animals. Many animals are adapted to feed on plankton, especially by filtering the water.

Yes, most do eat plankton.
Bacterioplankton are a type of plankton so small that they eat organic materials including bacteria. It is one of the three types of plankton, phytoplankton, bacterioplankton and zooplankton.
Plankton are eaten by filter feeders such as clams, as well as by small fish. Larger fish would be looking for something larger to eat. Plankton are extremely small.

No, plankton are any microscopic sea-dwelling organisms. these can be plants OR animals. I just checked (April 20, 2011) on Wikipedia: plankton means 'drifter' or 'wanderer' and can be any of the plants or animals UP TO JELLYFISH size. So small shrimp known as 'krill', ARE part of what makes up plankton. Please see the link:
Remora Fish eat small plankton and plankton organisms.

No plankton is not a plant it's just a small animal in the sea/ocean.
