When my Science teacher gives us notes to revise, I would be confused by all 
the terms used . What's the difference between zooplankton and phytoplankton 
and so on. I don't exactly know what are they either. And my teacher always 
mention that parasites may be epiphtes. I don't even understand what she's 
saying during lessons.
