Feeding Mechanisms

The feeding mechanisms of suspension-feeding calanoids have been of great interest through the years as they are some of the most abundant metazoans on the planet, dominating the plankton of the world’s oceans. Feeding mechanisms of calanoids appear to be similar for marine and freshwater species. Food is brought in toward the copepod on microcurrents created by rapid vibrations of the second antennae, mandibular palps, first maxillae, and maxillipeds[210,405]. Smaller food particles are captured passively, and are funneled into the mouth through the setae of the second maxillae[287,405]. During passive captures, the vibrations of the feeding appendages continue uninterrupted. Larger food particles are captured actively with an outward fling of the second maxillae followed by an inward squeeze to remove the excess water surrounding the food particle.

food habits:

Food gives our bodies the energy we need to function. Food is also a part of traditions and culture. This can mean that eating has an emotional component as well. For many people, changing eating habits is very hard.

You may have had certain eating habits for so long that you do not realize they are unhealthy. Or, your habits have become part of your daily life, so you do not think much about them.
