What characteristics are shared by organisms in each animal phylum?

Algae and other tiny organisms that live in water are classified as?

What are labelled algae?
The "algae" most people think of as algae are Cyanobacteria, *blue green algae*. By the name of the phylum you can guess that this "algae" is a bacteria, you are right. Scientifically speaking, true algae is only found in the Kingdom Protista, it is not plant, bacteria, fungi, or animal. We call Kingdom Protista the "grab bag kingdom" because it is home to the wierdest organisms that just don't fit well into other kingdoms. An example a true algae is Rhodophyta (red algae) Rhod=Red, Phyta=Algae. But to the lay person, they will mistake most Cyanobacteria for algae, and unless you are a biologist, this is just fine :)
What types of microbial organisms other than bacteria would you expect to find in the environment?

What would algae be in the food chain?
Algae are microscopic organisms that grows in the water. Algae is eaten by fish or krill and other tiny creatures. In a food chain it would be considered a producer because it harnesses the sun's energy to create food that is consumed by other organisms.
Do green algae move?
