aquatic nutrition

Aquatic nutrition refers to the study of how organisms in water—such as fish, aquatic plants, and marine animals—obtain and utilize food. This includes understanding their dietary needs, food sources, and how they process nutrients. For example, fish often eat plankton, algae, or smaller fish, while aquatic plants absorb nutrients from the water and sunlight. Proper aquatic nutrition is essential for healthy growth, reproduction, and overall ecosystem balance, influencing food chains and biodiversity in aquatic environments. By ensuring that these organisms receive adequate nutrition, we can help maintain thriving aquatic ecosystems.
