Microplastics are tiny plastic particles measuring less than 5 millimeters in size, often resulting from the breakdown of larger plastic items or manufactured as microbeads in products like cosmetics. Their small size allows them to easily enter and persist in marine ecosystems, impacting various marine life forms and disrupting the overall health of ocean ecosystems.
