Phytoplankton requires sunlight for photosynthesis, thriving in well-lit surface waters where sunlight penetrates, typically up to about 200 meters deep in the ocean. They also need nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus, but require only a small amount of water since they are aquatic organisms. Generally, they flourish in environments with optimal light and nutrient availability, which can vary depending on the species and specific aquatic ecosystem.
