How do iron levels affect phytoplankton population in a marine ecosystem ?

Phytoplankton and zooplankton mostly belong to

Assertion: In a marine aquatic ecosystem, the biomass of phytoplanktons (producers) at any given time, is lower than the biomass of zooplanktons (primary consumers). Reason: Phytoplanktons are consumed almost as rapidly as they are formed and thus have shorter life spans. (a) Assertion and reason, both are correct. Reason is the correct explanation for assertion. (b) Assertion and reason, both are correct. Reason is not the correct explanation for assertion. (c) Assertion is correct but reason is not correct. (d) Reason is correct but assertion is not correct.

Why are phytoplanktons more important in pond ecosystem than larger plants?
