Phytoplankton are microscopic marine plants. P hytoplankton, also known as microalgae, are similar to land-based plants in that they contain chlorophyll and require sunlight in order to live and grow. Most phytoplankton are buoyant and float in the upper part of the ocean, where sunlight penetrates the water. Phytoplankton also require inorganic nutrients such as nitrates, phosphates, and sulfur which they convert into proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
Difference. The most evident dissimilarity between them is that Zooplankton is an animal and protozoan while Phytoplankton is a plant. Diatoms and algae are the two classes of the latter one. Crustaceans, jellyfish, etc., are the forms of the former one.Phytoplankton is a tiny plant that is the source of oceanic food chain.
