Weâll begin by reviewing how marine organisms are classified by location â either as plankton, nekton, or benthos. Nekton are organisms that spend most of their time in the water column and can swim freely and faster than currents. Examples include whales, most fish, and squid. Plankton are organisms that live in the water
Phytoplankton are tiny microscopic plants - algae - that form the base of the marine food chain. Phytoplankton is most abundant in colder waters where there is an abundance of nutrients. There are three types of algae: red, green and brown. Some algae in the ocean are very small and drift in the ocean water.
