Smallest organisms that produce the most oxygen




Ordinary people will think that most of the oxygen in the earth's air
is the result of plant photosynthesis. It is true but actually not entirely the
tree that contributes oxygen. It needs to be straightened out as a
reminder for us that most of the oxygen that is on earth the contributor is
phytoplankton, a component of planktonic autotrophic organisms that are
abundant in the oceans, from the tropics to the poles. Phytoplankton is a
type of microscopic organism that lives in the depths of the ocean and is
always threatened by algae. Microcurrent plants can be found in all
oceans, from the shores to the middle of the great ocean, from warm
tropical waters to cold polar waters. In terms of vertical dimensions, this
tiny plant extends from the surface of the sound to the point where
sunlight can break the sound, which can reach a height of about 100-150
meters. The types are also very diverse, there can be hundreds of
species per liter of seawater, for it can reach millions to millions of cells
per liter. Based on the light penetration, the lake is divided into three
zones, namely the littoral zone, the limnetic zone and the deep zone.
These organisms produce oxygen from light energy to carry out
photosynthesis at the surface (called the euphotic zone) of the ocean,
lake or other body of water. Not only light as energy for photosynthesis
but the availability of nutrients for development is also a determinant for
phytoplankton development, nutrients such as nitrate, phosphate or
silicic acid, the availability of which is regulated by a balance between a
