• Phytoplankton are eaten by Zooplankton.• As Phytoplankton are Plants they make their own
food.• Some phytoplankton are bacteria, some are protists,
but most are single-celled plants.• Phytoplankton are the microscopic plants in the
oceans.• Phytoplankton start the food chain.
• Zooplankton are eaten by krill.• Zooplankton are some of the small animals of
the sea.• Zooplankton are second in the food chain.• Zooplankton are the primary consumers of the
oceans and graze on phytoplankton.
• Krill are small animals that eat zooplankton.• The average length for a krill is two inches.• Scientists estimate that the total weight of all the
Antarctic krill is more than the total weight of all humans on Earth.
• Squid, Humpback Whales and ice fish and tooth fish eat krill.
• Krill are invertebrates.Back Home
• Squid are eaten by tooth fish and emperor penguins.• Squid eat Zooplankton and Krill.• Squid are Carnivores.• All squid are invertebrates as they have no
