Do green algae have photosynthetic pigments?
Any plant which is Green in colour has Chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the pigment found in Chloroplasts which makes the Green Colour on Algae as well as helps the Algae to Photosynthesize.
How does green algae does it obtain energy?
Brown algae are photosynthetic, so it obtains its energy by converting light energy.
What supports the theory that plants evolved from multicellular green algae?
The theory of plants evolution that started from multicellular green algae is supported with evidence. First, the color and shape of small plants is similar with the green algae. Also, reproductive cycle , cell walls, the photosynthetic pigments are the same.
Why are green algae classified as plants and not as protist?
Plants enclose and protect the embryo within the female plant while green algae do not.
What characteristics of plants is shared by green algae?
cell wall composition,photosynthetic pigments and multicellularity
Is Chlamydomonas harmful to us?
Chlamydomonas is not harmful to us because it is a photosynthetic organism Also a green Algae
What photosynthetic organism does not have a chloroplast?
Cyanobacteria, also called blue-green algae, are bacteria that photosynthesize but do not have chloroplasts.
Where are green algae or other photosynthetic organisms likely to thrive in the ocean?
sunny water that is rich in nutrients.
What are the oldest ancestors of plants?
Probably the green algae, which descended from cyanobacteria. Seaweeds come in three colours, green, brown and red, and each has different photosynthetic mechanisms - not only chlorophyll. The intertidal zone may have played an important part in the colonization of the land from aquatic plants.
What is a association between a fungus and a cyanobacteria or green algae is a?
A symbiotic relationship between a fungus and green algae or cyanobacterium is a lichen. This occurs because lichen are composite organisms that consist of a symbiotic association to a fungus with a photosynthetic partner. In this example the photosynthetic partner is the cyanobacteria.
Is algae photosynthetic?
Most Algae are plants and as such will undergo photosynthesis in order to produce ATP which is needed for plant growth. Blue-Green Algae are not truly algae they are Prokaryote Cyanobacteria because their nucleus is not enclosed in the membrane (also undergo photosynthesis). All Algae are Eukaryotic and undergo photosynthesis.
What type of nutrition does algae have?
Algae have photosynthetic nutrition.
