What types of algae are in the deep ocean?
red algae red algae contain a pigment r-phycoerythrin which absorbs blue light and reflects red light. blue light can penetrate deeper parts of sea than other lights of higher wavelengths. hence we find red algae in deep sea oceans
Algae can survive on the seafloor only in?
Algae can survive on the seafloor only in shallow waters where there is enough sunlight for photosynthesis to occur. Deep sea areas lack sufficient light for algae to survive.
Where in waters biome can photosynthesis occur?
If in shallow water, the plants that grow on the bottom, but if on deep water, on floating algae.
What things contain red algae?
Red algae can be found in marine environments, where they play important roles in the ecosystem. Some common places where red algae can be found include coral reefs, rocky shores, and even in deep ocean environments. Red algae are also commonly used in food products, cosmetics, and in the production of agar.
Why does the red algae found at bottom of sea appear red?
Red algae appear red due to their pigments, mainly phycoerythrin and phycocyanin, which absorb blue and green light for photosynthesis. The remaining red light is reflected and gives the algae their characteristic red color, allowing them to thrive in deep water where red light penetrates best.
Among red green brown algae which is found in deep waters?
brown algae
What are some plants in the deep?
coral, algae that stuff
Why do snails burrow in rocks?
Snails have a main diet of algae and a lot of algae is found in the deep crevices of rocks.
Does red algae have specialized parts?
It can live in deep water.
Why can't green algae survive in deep water?
Marine algae are photosynthetic. At depths below 200m there is very little sunlight which would make photosynthesis extremely difficult.
What types of algae are in the deep ocean?
red algae red algae contain a pigment r-phycoerythrin which absorbs blue light and reflects red light. blue light can penetrate deeper parts of sea than other lights of higher wavelengths. hence we find red algae in deep sea oceans
What factor would limit the growth of algae in deep ocean water?
The main factor that limits the growth of algae in deep ocean water is low light availability. As depth increases, light penetration decreases, making it challenging for algae, which require sunlight for photosynthesis, to thrive. Additionally, nutrient availability and water temperature also play a role in restricting algae growth in deep ocean waters.
Algae can survive on the seafloor only in?
Algae can survive on the seafloor only in shallow waters where there is enough sunlight for photosynthesis to occur. Deep sea areas lack sufficient light for algae to survive.
Why don't plants and algae live in a deep sea ecosystem?
Not enough light to support photosythesis
Can brown algae live 175 meters deep in the ocean?
yes, actually 200 meters :P
Why is light important in algae?
Light is important for algae because it is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which algae convert light energy into chemical energy to produce food. Light also regulates important metabolic processes in algae, such as growth and reproduction. The intensity and quality of light can influence the growth rate and pigment composition of algae.
Where in waters biome can photosynthesis occur?
If in shallow water, the plants that grow on the bottom, but if on deep water, on floating algae.
