Plants enclose and protect the embryo within the female plant while green algae do not.
Some green algae are unicellular
Green algae are considered the most closely related to green plants, as they share similar photosynthetic pigments and cell structure. The chlorophytes and charophytes groups of green algae are particularly close relatives to land plants.
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.
Algae are protists. Protists are organisms in the kingdom Protist and made up of single or multiple cells which all contain a nucleus enclosed by a membrane. The protists are a diverse group of eukaryotes that cannot be classified as animals, plants, or fungi. Organisms in the Protista kingdom also include amoebae.
There is strong molecular and morphological evidence supporting the theory that land plants evolved from green algae. Both groups share similarities in their cell walls, chloroplast structure, and photosynthetic pigments. Additionally, genetic studies have shown a close evolutionary relationship between land plants and certain groups of green algae.
Green Algae is not even classified as plants in the first place yah big dummy!
Many protists, such as green algae and volvox are photosynthetic and are considered the ancestors of modern plants.
unicellular green algae
plant like protist
algae. there are many types of algae like green,blue,red, and brown!
Green algae is a primitive form of plant. It IS a plant WRONG!!!green algae is a protist don't put it on the internet if you know it isn't right. Actually, some forms of green algae are now classified in the Kingdom Plantae right along with green land plants. For example, the Divisions Chlorophyta and Charophyta are considered plants. Both of the above answers are incorrect in that the first one is too inclusive (not all green algae are considered plants) while the second one is too exclusive (SOME green algae are considered plants). So, you might take your own advice: don't put it on the Internet until you KNOW it is right.
Algae: Green algae, even red algae but phycoerythrin over populates it which gives the red algae its red color.
Giant kelp is a brown algae, some scientists believe it is a green algae but it is not.
algae are classified according to color, they are also classified according to how they reproduce
Green algae appear green because they contain chlorophyll pigments, specifically chlorophyll a and b, which absorb red and blue wavelengths of light for photosynthesis while reflecting green wavelengths. This gives green algae their characteristic green color.
I believe Green algae are members of the Protist family because they are plant like bacteria i believe but im not entirely sure
Green algae is the group of protists that is closest related to land plants. They share many structural and biochemical similarities, such as presence of chlorophyll a and b, cellulose cell walls, and similar reproductive structures. This relationship supports the theory that land plants evolved from green algae.
