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.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The quantitative analysis of plankton requires a count of the organisms to be made. Then, an
estimation of plankton in the sample volume of water can be determined. Information can be found in
the section Plankton Collection Methods Depend on the Organism's Size.
