Zooplankton primarily feed on phytoplankton, which are microscopic plant-like organisms that perform photosynthesis. They may also consume other small particles in the water, including bacteria, detritus, and smaller zooplankton. Some larger zooplankton, like certain species of jellyfish, can also prey on small fish and larval forms of larger aquatic animals. Their feeding habits play a crucial role in aquatic food webs, linking primary producers to higher trophic levels.
