plankton are a type of fish and a shark's favorite snack.
Plankton can be either. Plankton is a generic term for any free floating organism.
Plankton are microscopic sea creatures, and the term includes both animals and plants.
Yes and no. Isopoda are a big group of different animal life, some of which are plankton. Some others include regular cockroaches.
Neither, but closer to zooplankton than phytoplankton in my book. PLANKTON is not a taxonomic term. Plankton are organisms that can not actively swim against currents. Contrast "plankton" (floaters) with "nekton" (swimmers). ZOO -plankton are animal floaters like copepods and jellyfish, whereas PHYTO-plankton are photosynthetic floaters that include single microscopic cells like diatoms and dinoflagellates (organisms that make red tides). Amoeba are protists in the domain Eukarya so are more related to animals than plants, but are neither.
Plankton can include both herbivores and carnivores. Phytoplankton are plant-like plankton that primarily obtain energy through photosynthesis and are considered herbivores. However, zooplankton are animal-like plankton that feed on phytoplankton and are considered carnivores.
Yes, plankton can include protists. Protists are a group of diverse eukaryotic organisms that do not fit into the plant, animal, or fungi kingdoms, and many species of plankton fall under this category.
Plankton can have various body parts depending on the type of plankton. Common body parts found in plankton include flagella for movement, cilia for feeding and movement, a nucleus for controlling cell functions, and chloroplasts for photosynthesis in phytoplankton.
They update the game weekly so they might include plankton next time they update it.
Nekton is the opposite of plankton. The term encompasses all organisms that can swim actively in water eg. fish, sqid. Plankton consist all drifting organisms that are carried by the oceans tides and currents.
A planktivore is an aquaticorganismthat consumes plankton, such asthe angelfish, and Whale sharks.note: ("Plankton" is a broad term for an aquatic organism that has little tono form of locomotion.)
Plankton aren't a single species. The term encompasses an entire world of species that simply can't swim against the current (similar to pollen in the air). Plankton account for a large portion (if not the largest portion) of the base of the aquatic food chain. If you're an aquatic creature & you don't eat plankton, chances are you eat something that ate plankton.
