phytoplankton. Zooplankton are animals that move and float in the ocean like a jellyfish.
Phytoplankton are plants (usually microscopic) that floats but it doesnt move. Phytoplankton are
the only plant living in the Arctic Ocean.
A major threat to the Arctic Ocean is global warming. The ice cap was melting since the ice
age because people are producing too much carbon dioxide, effecting
the food chain. Killer whales and greenland sharks eat all the seals,
because seals cant go on the ice, since the whales and sharks cannot
walk on ice. Polar Bears give birth to cubs, but cubs drown since
they cant swim. And that might effect the food
chain or they will become extinct. No more
seals, so the population of fish and squid rises,
then eats all the plankton. Fish and squid dies
too, since there are no more plankton.
