Are algae decomposers?
Algae and other plants make their own food from sunlight, so they are producers.
Why do algae and fungi have their own kingdoms?
Algae and fungi posses characteristics that make them unique among all the organisms. Algae are different from plants because they perform cell division in a very different way, their reproductive structures are completely nude, while in plants the reproductive structures are covered with a sterile layer of cells. Fungi lack photosynthetic machinery, which differences them from algae, plants and some bacteria. So, fungi and algae posses a wide range of characteristics that are enough to separate them from other kingdoms and have their own.
How are algae and plants different?
Algae are simple, photosynthetic organisms that lack true roots, stems, and leaves, while plants are more complex and have specialized structures for different functions. Moreover, algae do not have reproductive structures like flowers, fruits, or seeds, while plants do. Additionally, algae can range from single-celled to multicellular forms, whereas plants are mostly multicellular.
