Plankton are typically found in the photic zone of lakes, which is the upper layer of water where sunlight penetrates and photosynthesis can occur. This zone usually extends to about 20 meters deep, depending on water clarity. Plankton can be divided into phytoplankton, which are plant-like organisms, and zooplankton, which are animal-like, both thriving in this illuminated layer.
