My answer will be because these characteristics intervene in the capture and assimilation of the food, having 4 general food behaviors: (1) detritivores, consume a lot of material from the bottom of the water source, (2) herbivores, who consume mostly plant components (filamentous algae and higher plants); (3) periphyton consumers, who are characterized by feeding on microalgae and microinvertebrates and (4) omnivores, in which they indistinctly feed on plant material as an animal of different origin.
