The minute floating organisms found in oceans, seas, ponds, and lakes are primarily phytoplankton and zooplankton. Phytoplankton are microscopic plants that perform photosynthesis and are crucial for the aquatic food web. Zooplankton, on the other hand, are tiny animals that feed on phytoplankton and other small organisms. Together, they play a vital role in aquatic ecosystems and contribute to the overall health of water bodies.
Yes. Of course. Unicellular plants are found floating on oceans. They are called phytoplanktons.

Simple organisms are found everywhere. Right this minute, there are untolled billions of bacteria and virusses on your skin, all of which are natural and helpful in contributing to your personal health.
Goldfish will feed on the algae and minute organisms found around the weeds.
Jellyfish, corals, and sea anemones are examples of organisms found in oceans that use stinging cells called cnidocytes to capture their prey. These cnidocytes contain specialized structures called nematocysts that inject toxins into their prey.
Floating ice can be found in polar regions such as the Arctic and Antarctic oceans, where sea ice forms from frozen seawater. This ice can form large ice shelves, icebergs, and sea ice cover, depending on the region and conditions.
Organisms are typically found in the biosphere, which includes the land (soil), water bodies (rivers, lakes, oceans), and atmosphere (air). Within these realms, organisms inhabit various niches depending on their specific habitat requirements and adaptations.
Living organisms are found in various habitats such as forests, oceans, deserts, grasslands, and freshwater environments. They can be found on land, in the air, and in the water. Some organisms are adapted to extreme environments such as hot springs, deep-sea vents, and polar regions.
No, Jellyfish are pelagic organisms, this means that they live floating about in the upper layers of the open ocean, and while they can swim up and down in the water they are carried around in the ocean by water currents.
97.5% of Earth's water is found in the oceans. 2.5% is found in freshwater lakes.
The puffer fish can be found in Oceans but very rarely
