In Think Tank students learned how the ocean food web works. Without plankton, no life would exist in the ocean. Producers absorb energy from the sun. The producer, plankton, is eaten by other plankton, which is in turn eaten by a larger creature. The shark is at the top of the food web, and eats everything else in the ocean.
