  GRE阅读题目解析:浮游动物

  P5

  Zooplankton, tiny animals adapted to an existence in the ocean, have evolved clever mechanisms for obtaining their food, miniscule phytoplankton (plant plankton). A very specialized feeding adaptation in zooplankton is that of the tadpolelike appendicularian who lives in a walnut-sized (or smaller) balloon of mucus equipped with filters that capture and concentrate phytoplankton. The balloon, a transparent structure that varies in design according to the type of appendicularian inhabiting it, also protects the animal and helps to keep it afloat. Water containing phytoplankton is pumped by the appendicularian‘s muscular tail into the balloon‘s incurrent filters, passes through the feeding filter where the appendicularian sucks the food into its mouth, and then goes through an exit passage. Found in all the oceans of the world, including the Arctic Ocean, appendicularians tend to remain near the water‘s surface where the density of phytoplankton is greatest. (143 words)

  10. It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following is true of appendicularians?

  (A) They are exclusively carnivorous.

  (B) They have more than one method of obtaining food.

  (C) They can tolerate frigid water.

  (D) They can disguise themselves by secreting mucus.

  (E) They are more sensitive to light than are other zooplankton.
