Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Extremely small plankton can go straight through the smallest of plankton nets. Centrifugation or
filtration can be used to capture the plankton. Filtration is the most common method. Information can
be found in the section Plankton Collection Methods Depend on the Organism's Size.
