It is estimated by scientists that 50–80% of the oxygen production on planet comes from oceans due to photosynthetic activity phytoplankton. Some this consumed both phytoplankton and zooplankton for cellular respiration. In article, we have analyzed dynamics oxygen-plankton model with a modified Holling type II functional response, based premise has variable search rate, rather than constant, w...
