do they come in different sizes?
Yes, they are often described in terms of size.
Plankton
Plankton are also often described in terms of size. Usually the following divisions are used:
However, some of these terms may be used with very different boundaries, especially on the larger end. The existence and importance of nano- and even smaller plankton was only discovered during the 1980s, but they are thought to make up the largest proportion of all plankton in number and diversity.
why are certain traits adaptations in one ecosystem but not in another apex UNANSWERABLE which species are present in an apex? Gray wolf why is it present under the apex list? They often kept animals from grazing in riparian areas, which protected beavers from having their food sources encroached upon. which animals fall under the non-apex category? Sea urchins, mussels, and other shellfish. where is the last mentioned animal mostly found? Most kinds of shellfish are harvested from saltwater environments, some are found in freshwater. can they be poisonous? Shellfish caught in Alaska can lead to paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP). does it cause any reaction when consumed by some people? It can lead to death by paralyzing the breathing muscles. what is the nutrition value of the second mentioned animal? UNANSWERABLE what does the second animal that is mentioned above, feed on? Plankton and other microscopic sea creatures which are free-floating in seawater. what is this first creature you just mentioned?

Plankton [SEP] Size groups
Plankton are also often described in terms of size. Usually the following divisions are used: However, some of these terms may be used with very different boundaries, especially on the larger end. The existence and importance of nano- and even smaller plankton was only discovered during the 1980s, but they are thought to make up the largest proportion of all plankton in number and diversity. The microplankton and smaller groups are microorganisms and operate at low Reynolds numbers, where the viscosity of water is much more important than its mass or inertia.
