What are examples of protist producers?

Some examples of protist producers include phytoplankton, which are responsible for much of the ocean's primary production, and diatoms, which are a type of algae found in both freshwater and marine environments. These protists are capable of undergoing photosynthesis to produce their own food.

How much of our oxygen comes from the algae that tints the oceans?

What causes algae to die?

Lack of sunlight or nutrients. Algae is essentially a type of plant. Think about typical household plants, if they don't have water, soil, or sunlight, they will die. But algae, unlike household plants, typically live in a body of water, so a lack of water normally is not a cause of death for them. Normally, algae die because there is not enough sunlight or nutrients, possibly because of an algae bloom (too much algae that use up sunlight and nutrients).
