What substances allow algae to harvest and use the energy from sunlight?
One substance that allows algae to harvest and make use of the energy provided by the sunlight is chlorophyll. The other is accessory pigments.
Which substance allows algae to harvest and use the energy from sunlight?
Some algae have chloroplasts and chlorophyll and obtain their energy through photosynthesis while some algae like euglena are both heterotrophic (decompose dead organic matter) and autotrophic (use photosynthesis) and can also obtain energy likewise. Hope I helped.
What organisms are able to convert the suns energy into usable energy?
Um...there are many bacteria species which can do that. Did you happen to ask which organell of the plants transforms sunlight energy into ATP and NADPH? - That would be the chloroplast.
The conversion of light energy into chemical bond energy occurs within the cells of?
algae
Why is water greenish blue in color?
Usually, algae (AL jee) -- tiny plants. Algae can grow on surface of the water or on rocks and other stuff on the bottom. Sometimes it's not the water that's green, but the lake bottom or stream bottom. In shallow areas, sunlight reflects off the algae growing on the bottom and makes the water look green. High concentrations of copper can also make water look green.

Does algae get their energy from the sun?
yes of course
Where does plants and algae get there energy from?
They Get it from sunlight.
Where do the energy needed by plants and algae come from?
sunlight
Algae can use the energy from sunlight because they contain what?
chloroplast
How do most unicellular algae get food?
Most unicellular algae use the energy of sunlight to produce food.
How does red algae obtain energy?
Algae obtain their food from photosynthesis . They absorb sunlight that gets to them and with a couple different processes they turn the sunlight into light energy which is converted into chemical energy which helps to make energy ( ATP ).With the ATP they can transform carbon - di - oxide into glucose . Glucose is their food.
What happens if you put algae near sunlight?
Yes the sun is where algae gets its energy.
Abiotic needs of red algae?
one abiotic factor affecting the abundance and distribution of red algae (scientific name rhodophyta) is sunlight as red algae depends almost only on sunlight as it needs this to carry out photosynthesis to gain their energy. Without the required sunlight, red algae cannot perform photosynthesis, which means they won't have the energy they need and therefore will find it difficult to survive.
