Among the more important groups are the diatoms, cyanobacteria, dinoflagellates and coccolithophores.

Phytoplankton, are autotrophic prokaryotic or eukaryotic algae that live near the water surface where there is sufficient light to support photosynthesis.

<h3>What are Phytoplankton ?</h3>

Phytoplankton is made of very tiny--usually one-celled--plants. Since plants make their own food and release oxygen as a byproduct, all the other living things in the ocean depend on them directly or indirectly for food or oxygen.

  • The two main classes of phytoplankton are dinoflagellates and diatoms.

  • Dinoflagellates use a whip-like tail, or flagella, to move through the water and their bodies are covered with complex shells.

Arisa [49]

Answer: <u>Activators </u> can switch on enzyme activity, while <u>inhibitors </u>can switch off or reduce enzyme activity.

Enzymes are biomolecules that catalyzes a reaction. The enzymes can either speed up or slows down a reaction. Activators are compounds, molecules or elements that attach to the enzyme and promotes its activity. Inhibitors are factors which prevent the activity of the enzyme. Both activators and inhibitors are necessary for cellular metabolisms taking place in a living organism.

algol [13]

Answer:

- Oak trees: primary producers

- Caterpillars: primary consumers

- Blue Jays: secondary consumers

- Hawks: tertiary consumers

Explanation:

A trophic pyramid, also known as ecological pyramid or energy pyramid, is a graphic representation that shows the relationships between different types of organisms (i.e., producers and consumers) at the trophic levels of an ecosystem. The primary producers are autotrophic organisms that obtain energy from sunlight and chemical compounds from nonliving sources (e.g., photosynthetic plants, algae, etc). The primary consumers are organisms that eat primary producers (e.g., herbivores), while secondary consumers are organisms that eat primary consumers (e.g., omnivores). Moreover, tertiary consumers are predators and/or omnivores that eat secondary consumers (e.g., hawks). Finally, decomposers (e.g., bacteria) are organisms that obtain nutrients and energy by breaking down dead organic material (i.e., dead organisms) at all trophic levels into nutrients.
