Explanation:

Plankton are the diverse collection of organisms that live in large bodies of water and are unable to swim against a current.[1] The individual organisms constituting plankton are called plankters.[2] They provide a crucial source of food to many small and large aquatic organisms, such as bivalves, fish and whales.

Planktonic organisms include bacteria, archaea, algae, protozoa and drifting or floating animals that inhabit—for example—the pelagic zone of oceans, seas, or bodies of fresh water. Essentially, plankton are defined by their ecological niche rather than any phylogenetic or taxonomic classification.
