The zooplankton feeding upon phytoplankton occupies the second trophic level in an ecosystem. Aquatic animals occupy any trophic level in an ecosystem. Aquatic animals such as zooplankton occupies first trophic level. Aquatic animals such as small fish occupies second trophic level. Aquatic animals such as large fish occupies third trophic level. The aquatic plants occupy first trophic level. Thus, the correct answer is 'Aquatic animals.'
