Marine Ecosystem

Plankton

Plankton are tiny organisms that form the base of the marine food web. They are consumed by small fish and other marine animals.

Small Fish

Small fish feed on plankton and are prey for larger marine animals like seals and sharks.

Seal

Seals are carnivorous marine mammals that feed on fish, including small fish and sometimes larger prey.

Shark

Sharks are apex predators in the ocean, feeding on fish, seals, and sometimes even whales.

Crab

Crabs are omnivorous and feed on algae, plankton, small fish, and detritus. They are prey for larger animals like fish and seals.

Whale

Whales are large marine mammals that feed on plankton (in the case of baleen whales) or larger prey such as fish and squid.
