no,since they themselves are consumed
no
No, they eat phytoplankton and phytoplankton are producers.
No, They are primarily consumed!
Yes it is; and one of its consumers is zoo plankton.
Zooplankton get their food from eating phytoplankton. The phytoplankton are the base of the food chain. Zooplankton are primary consumers or the second step in the food chain.
Primary consumers that eat phytoplankton are typically small aquatic organisms known as zooplankton. This group includes tiny crustaceans such as copepods and krill, as well as larval stages of various fish and invertebrates. These consumers play a crucial role in the aquatic food web, as they convert the energy stored in phytoplankton into a form that can be utilized by higher trophic levels, such as fish and larger marine animals.
Yes it is; and one of its consumers is zoo plankton.
Zooplankton are both primary and secondary consumers. If they eat algae or cyanobacteria they will be primary consumers. If they eat other zooplankton then they would be secondary consumers. Just as people may eat plants thus making them primary or eat meat making them secondary.
It is not a consumer, it is a primry producer
be careful... plankton only wants the crabby patty secret formula.
No, a clam is not a primary consumer. Clams are filter feeders that primarily consume phytoplankton and other microscopic organisms, making them secondary consumers in the food chain. Primary consumers are organisms that consume producers, such as plants or algae, directly.
Oysters eat plankton and mostly phytoplankton which means they are primary consumers according to the food chain
Only if they eat other zooplankton (other consumers). Most likely though, they are eating phytoplankton (producers), which makes them primary consumers.
