Marine algae and kelps
Marine habitats are home to seaweeds, algae, sea grasses, and mangroves.
Marine algae are simple, photosynthetic organisms that lack true roots, stems, and leaves, such as seaweed. Marine plants are more complex, multicellular organisms with roots, stems, and leaves, such as seagrasses. While both contribute to marine ecosystems, marine algae are typically found in intertidal and subtidal zones, while marine plants are found in shallow coastal waters.

Yes, red algae and red marine algae refer to the same group of algae that are predominantly found in marine environments. They are known for their red pigmentation due to the presence of phycoerythrin pigments.
The plant that produces the most oxygen in the world is the phytoplankton, which are tiny marine algae found in oceans and bodies of water.
No, periwinkles are not carnivores. They are marine snails that primarily feed on algae and plant matter.
