Zooplankton get their food from eating phytoplankton. The phytoplankton are the base of the food chain. Zooplankton are primary consumers or the second step in the food chain.
By eating phytoplankton.
Zooplankton. Phytoplankton are autotrophs, as they produce their own food through photosynthesis. Zooplankton are heterotrophs, relying on consuming other organisms, like phytoplankton, to obtain their energy.
What is the Pygmy Seahorse food chain? Well, you got to the right place to find that out... Although, it involves small shrimp, small crustaceans, and also don't forget zooplankton..... The crustaceans gives energy to the zooplankton. The zooplankton gives its energy to the shrimp then the shrimp gives its energy to the Pygmy seahorse...
Phytoplankton get eaten by Zooplankton and Zooplankton get eaten by Herring but Phyotplankton make their own energy form sunlight so it's a Producer.
Phytoplankton and zooplankton
no zooplankton dont eat seaweed, and krill eats zooplankton, some whales eat zooplankton, there are also others i cant think of
A ZooPlankton Eats Anything , But It Has To Be Smaller Than Its Self .
It is a consumer. It feeds on particles.
phytoplankton are autotrophs and zooplankton are heterotrophs
You catch zooplankton by algae.
An example of an energy pyramid is a marine ecosystem where the producers, such as phytoplankton, form the base of the pyramid. Herbivorous zooplankton consume the phytoplankton, and then small fish eat the zooplankton. Larger predatory fish then feed on the small fish, creating a pyramid structure of energy flow.
Only if they eat other zooplankton (other consumers). Most likely though, they are eating phytoplankton (producers), which makes them primary consumers.
