What are called Phytoplanktons?​

Answer»

EXPLANATION:

PHYTOPLANKTON are the AUTOTROPHIC (self-feeding) components of the plankton community and a key part of oceans, SEAS and freshwater basin ecosystems. The name comes from the Greek words (phyton), meaning "PLANT", and (planktos), meaning "wanderer" or "drifter".

Some phytoplankton are bacteria, some are protists, and most are single-celled plants. Among the common kinds are cyanobacteria, silica-encased diatoms, dinoflagellates, green algae, and chalk-coated coccolithophores.
