Plankton is broken down into the three trophic level groups listed below.
Zooplankton: animals, so they consume oxygen (respiration) in the water
Phytoplankton: plants, so they consume oxygen (respiration) in the water, but they also consume CO2 (during photosynthesis). As a result of the process of photosynthesis (autotrophic organisms) they only appear/live in the water where it reaches the solar light (not in the depth of sea).
Bacterioplankton: bacteria and archaea that remineralize organic material.

the difference is, microzooplankton is eatten by macrozooplankton. Also 'micro' means 'small' and 'macro' means 'big'. and, if you want to know the difference in the words, it's the letters 'i' and 'a'
Plant plankton is able to extract its energy from the sun and produce its own food and drift on the surface of water. whereas though animal plankton is slightly bigger and and these tiny plankton are generally tiny shell fish which move about under water eating plant plankton
phytoplanktons are aquatic plants. They are the producers of energy. They convert solar energy into chemical energy. While zooplanktons are aquatic animals and they feed on phytoplanktons.
Zooplankton actually look like living things; that, and they're not as green as phytoplankton.
phytoplankton is floating lower plants, zooplankton is the floating lower animals
Zooplankton eat phytoplankton.
J-beezy is the best in the trap game
phytoplankton are autotrophs and zooplankton are heterotrophs
they eat diffeint foods
No corals doesn't eat zooxanthellae they only eat zooplankton. Zooxanthallae helps corals to live and keeps corals colourful.They live on the coral polyps.
Commensalism
coral reffes are better
Almost all coral are predatory, meaning that they capture prey from the water column; this prey is small zooplankton organisms. Some corals also contain a symbiotic algae, called zooxanthellae, that produces sugars and releases some of the sugar to the coral.

Phytoplankton and zooplankton
Zooplankton is found in oceans.The zebra angelfish and the zebra lionfish are also found in the ocean.Other creatures are the Zanzibar whip coral shrimp, zebra moray, zebra shark, zigzag cowry and warty sea slugs.
no zooplankton dont eat seaweed, and krill eats zooplankton, some whales eat zooplankton, there are also others i cant think of
