Algae are unicellular plants- and so they make their own food by photosynthesis. i won't highlight all the biochemistry in detail, but the following equation sums up the reaction:
6H2O + 6CO2 (+ Sunlight) = 6O2 + C6H12O6
The equation above states that water and carbon dioxide are converted into glucose( the plant's food) and oxygen as a waste product- using light energy to drive the reaction.

How does golden algae feed?
Golden algae are photosynthetic organisms, using sunlight to produce energy through photosynthesis. They also have the ability to consume organic material, such as bacteria or smaller algae, as a supplementary food source. This mix of autotrophic and heterotrophic feeding strategies allows golden algae to adapt to different environmental conditions.
Does algae get their energy from the sun?
Yes, algae obtain energy through photosynthesis, a process that converts sunlight into energy. Algae contain chlorophyll, a pigment that captures sunlight and enables them to produce their own food and energy.
Is the growth of algae limited because of carbon dioxide and sunlight?
The growth of algae can be limited by various factors including carbon dioxide and sunlight availability. Algae require carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and sunlight for energy. When these resources are limited, algae growth can be constrained. Other factors such as nutrient availability and temperature can also influence algae growth.
Is the growth of algae in ocean water limited by their need for carbon dioxide and sunlight?
Yes, algae growth in ocean water is limited by their need for carbon dioxide and sunlight, as these are essential for photosynthesis, the process by which algae produce energy. Other factors such as nutrients and temperature can also affect algae growth but carbon dioxide and sunlight are critical for their survival.
Are algae decomposers?
Algae and other plants make their own food from sunlight, so they are producers.

Do bee's ever feed off of algae?
No, bees don't feed off algae.
What does algae?
What algae will consume depends on the particular species of algae, whether autotrophic, heterotrophic, or mixotrophic, and the conditions it is in. Photoautotrophic algae (plant-like algae) mostly need sunlight, Nitrogen, Potassium, and Phosphorus as well as water and CO2. Other species are able to survive without sunlight and others feed on bacteria and sugars instead of making their own sugars. Sometimes even photoautotrophic and heterotrophic algae if in lack of O2, they can no longer respirate so they go into anaerobic respiration and ferment.
Where does plants and algae get there energy from?
They Get it from sunlight.
Is a producer in the food chain the sunlight algae tadpole or duck?
sunlight

Does algae require sunlight to live?
It depends upon what kind of algae you are referring to. In general, most algae that humans interact with (the green stuff in pools and lakes, the symbiotic lichen algae on trees, etc.) do require oxygen, although aquatic algae derive their oxygen from the dissolved oxygen in the water.
What does a snail feed on?
Algae, so you don't really need to feed them as they "feed" themselves.
Is the growth of algae limited because of carbon dioxide and sunlight?
The growth of algae can be limited by various factors including carbon dioxide and sunlight availability. Algae require carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and sunlight for energy. When these resources are limited, algae growth can be constrained. Other factors such as nutrient availability and temperature can also influence algae growth.
Which animal feed on algae and other animals?
Fishes and other aquatic animals can feed algae and other small aquatic creatures.
Species of snails that feed on algae?
All snails that I know of eat algae.
What does a water snail eat?
They eat by pressing on the Algee or what ever they are eating some eat Algee or fresh water plants but before u feed your snail u should find out what kind of snail u have and where u should keep it and what temperature u should keep it at so find out what it eats before u feed
