suodatuskakkua

Suodatuskakkua, also known as the filter feeder, is a type of marine organism that obtains food by filtering small particles from the water. This process is facilitated by specialized structures, such as cilia or a mucus net, which trap and direct food particles towards the organism's mouth. Suodatuskakkua are found in various marine environments, including coral reefs, open oceans, and coastal areas. They play a crucial role in the marine food web by consuming plankton and other small organisms, which in turn helps to control the population of these microscopic creatures. Some well-known examples of suodatuskakkua include sponges, bryozoans, and certain types of mollusks and annelids. The term "suodatuskakkua" is derived from the Finnish words "suodata," meaning to filter, and "kakkua," meaning a small opening or hole.
