The oceans cover the maximum area of the planet Earth. The ocean is home to a large number of creatures which are both autotrophs and heterotrophs. Autotrophs can include unicellular (Cyanobacteria and dinoflagellates) or can be multicellular (seaweed, seagrass and other aquatic flora) which constitute major biodiversity of earth, Therefore, bulk carbon fixation takes place in them through photosynthesis.
