Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

im reseaching how light exposure affect the growth of sea monkeys. right now i just need some bck ground information on light exposure and how it affects other zooplankton found in salt water

Hello,

Here is a website to check out: http://www.ehow.com/info_8722934_effect ... nkeys.html
Basically, sea monkeys are attracted to light because the presence of light allows algae (food for the sea monkeys) to grow. Therefore, light = food for the sea monkeys, and they head towards the light (and hopefully reach their food) in order to survive.

I hope that helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
