Phytoplankton are responsible for producing more oxygen on Earth than all plant life. It is estimated that they make more than 60 percent of the planet's oxygen.
Some plankton are photosynthetic, which means that they "make their own food" from the sunlight, much like plants. Most photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and creates oxygen. The oxygen can be dissolved into the water.
plant-like plankton in the ocean put out most of the oxygen in the atmoshere as a waste-product of photosynthesis.

They produce oxygen during photosynthesis.
they produce oxygen in the oceans
Energy, oxygen.
they produce oxygen in the oceans
Plankton gives more oxygen to the atmosphere.
a lot of oxygen! that's where most of it comes from!
This is partially true. Technically, only plankton creates other plankton. But the whole process is driven by the sun, which provides the energy for most life on earth. The sun drives phytoplankton production, which in turn drives the production of pretty much all other plankton.
well plankton eats the energy from the sun and that helps it provide oxygen and this is the process of photosynthesis. so really plankton only eats the suns heat and energy.
They produce oxygen during photosynthesis.
