Holoplankton and meroplankton are types of planktons found in the oceans. Holoplankton are planktons for their entire lives, while meroplanktons are planktons for only part of their lives.
Meroplankton are organisms that spend only a part of their life cycle in the planktonic stage, typically as larvae, before settling into a benthic or nektonic lifestyle; examples include the larvae of crabs and fish. In contrast, holoplankton are organisms that remain planktonic for their entire lives, such as jellyfish and copepods. Essentially, the key difference lies in the duration of their planktonic existence, with meroplankton being temporary and holoplankton being permanent inhabitants of the plankton community.
Zooplankton are primarily divided into two main categories: holoplankton and meroplankton. Holoplankton spend their entire life cycle in the planktonic stage, including organisms like copepods and jellyfish. In contrast, meroplankton are only planktonic during a specific life stage, such as the larval forms of fish, mollusks, and crustaceans. Additionally, zooplankton can be classified based on size, habitat, and feeding mechanisms.
Yes
no, its a zooplankton
phytoplankton zooplankton meroplankton holoplankton
There are two types of zooplankton. Permanent and holoplankton
They are microzooplankton and a re holoplankton (plankton that stay plankton their whole life) and they are herbivores. They secrete a gelatinous sack to protect them.
Any of various organisms that spend part of their life cycle, usually the larval or egg stages, as plankton.
The pair of them differ so much.Their opinions often differ.
they are differ by their color they are also differ in temperature
Differ.
How does what differ from mass?
