Seaweeds that most often occur in warm marine waters are typically red or brown algae. These types of algae are adapted to the conditions of tropical and subtropical environments, where they thrive in the nutrient-rich waters and abundant sunlight.

The comprehensive marine plants list includes various types of seaweeds, seagrasses, and algae.
Mushrooms are fungi that come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, and are known for their unique earthy flavor. Seaweeds are marine algae that grow in the ocean and are rich in nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Both mushrooms and seaweeds can be incorporated into a variety of dishes for their health benefits and umami taste.
Bioluminescent algae in South Carolina's coastal waters play a significant role in the ecosystem by attracting tourists and providing a unique natural spectacle. The algae's ability to produce light at night creates a mesmerizing glow in the water, drawing visitors to experience this natural phenomenon. Additionally, the presence of bioluminescent algae indicates a healthy marine environment, as these organisms thrive in clean and nutrient-rich waters.
The amount of sunlight in the marine biome varies depending on the depth of the water. In shallow waters, sunlight can penetrate and support photosynthesis for marine plants and algae. In deeper waters, sunlight is limited and organisms have adapted to survive in low light conditions or with alternative energy sources like chemosynthesis.
Red algae is a type of seaweed. This seaweed lives in warm waters.

Seaweeds belong to three kingdoms: Kingdom Plantae (chlorophyte, or "green" algae seaweeds), Kingdom Plantae (rhodophyte, or "red" algae seaweeds), Kingdom Chromista (phaeophyte, or "brown" algae seaweeds) Kingdom Chromista (xanthophyte, or "yellow-green" algae seaweeds), and Kingdom Bacteria (cyanophyte, or "blue-green" algae seaweeds). Seaweeds that belong to the Kingdom Plantae are plants; the others, strictly speaking, are not. Kombu (kelp), arame (kelp), limu moui (kelp), hijiki, mozuku, and wakame are not plants. Wikipedia places them under Kingdom Chromalveolata because they are classified as "brown" algae seaweeds. However, nori (laver), ogo (limu), and dulse are classified as "red" algae seaweeds and are placed under Kingdom Plantae. Kingdom Protista, which includes the chlorophyll-containing, self-propelling euglenozoa, is a fourth kingdom of algae which contains no species of seaweeds. Thomas Cavalier-Smith defined Kingdom Chromista in 1981 and redefined it as Kingdom Chromalveolata in 2005. However, in 2008, other biologists have proposed splitting Kingdom Chromalveolata into at least two smaller kingdoms and this newer version has gained increasing support. The cancer-preventing marine polysaccharide, fucoidan, and the weight loss causing marine carotenoid, fucoxanthin, are both always plentiful in "brown" algae seaweeds, including kombu, arame, limu moui, hijiki, mozuku, and wakame. "Yellow-green" algae seaweeds, which are never sold commercially, do not contain much fucoidan or fucoxanthin, even though they are still classified as members of Kingdom Chromalveolata together with the "brown" algae seaweeds.

No , , sea weeds are not included in kingdom Monera but in Kingdon Protista Seaweeds belong to three kingdoms: Kingdom Plantae (chlorophyte, or "green" algae seaweeds), Kingdom Plantae (rhodophyte, or "red" algae seaweeds), Kingdom Chromista (phaeophyte, or "brown" algae seaweeds) Kingdom Chromista (xanthophyte, or "yellow-green" algae seaweeds), and Kingdom Bacteria (cyanophyte, or "blue-green" algae seaweeds).
Algae are a diverse group of photosynthetic organisms that can be unicellular or multicellular. They include seaweeds, pond scum, and phytoplankton. Algae can be found in various habitats, from freshwater to marine environments.
