Algae are plants.
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 can produce more oxygen compared to terrestrial plants due to their faster growth rate and higher photosynthetic efficiency. Additionally, algae can thrive in a wide range of environments, allowing them to contribute significantly to oxygen production in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.
Well, animal-like protists are basically protozoas. They can move on their own, are consumers and typically live in water. Plant-like protists are basically single-celled plants. They have chloroplasts, are producers, and they cannot move on their own. One kind of plant-like protist is algae.
One major difference is that ferns have leaves called fronds, while other seedless vascular plants like club mosses and horsetails have needle-like or scale-like leaves.
You can examine the number of cotyledons in the seed of the plant. Monocotyledonous plants have one cotyledon, while dicotyledonous plants have two cotyledons. This is a key characteristic that helps differentiate between the two types of plants.
One key structural difference between algae and land plants is that algae lack true roots, stems, and leaves, while land plants have well-defined vascular tissues that support them. Algae also lack specialized structures for reproduction, such as flowers or cones, which are present in many land plants. Additionally, algae typically have a simpler body structure compared to the more complex structures seen in land plants.
They do not have roots, stems, or leaves Edited answer: Algae come under primitive plants as these ahve varity of forms ranging from unicellular to multicellular colonial and filamentous and have undifferentiated body.
Well, some algae ARE plants; green algae and brown algae (and maybe glauco algae depending on who you ask). For the most part the others are protists. Depending on how specific you want to get this question can get pretty complicated. There are some pretty cool and obscure forms of algae out there. I am sure if this question has to do with a test or something in mid/high school the question should refer to a particular definition of algae and a particular definition of plants as pertains to the text used in the class, but in the real world this question is unanswerable as it stands because there are too many kinds of plants and too many kinds of algae. To cite differences specific types of each must be specified.

Humans eat and plants use photosynthesis Theres one
one makes seeds and another does not make seeds
Names of classes in nonvascular plants are Algae, Fungi and Bryophytes. As one proceeds from Algae to Bryophytes the complexity of plant body is increased.
One important difference is their level of complexity. Chlamydomonas is a single-celled algae, while Volvox is a multicellular organism composed of many cells. This difference in complexity can impact their size, behavior, and reproduction.
ALGAE : any of a group of aquatic plants, ranging from one-celled plankton to large seaweeds.
There are not many plants that live in the continental slope. One of the few plants that live here is algae.
Algae are one of the oldest lineages, from before plants went onto land. Bryophytes are of the first lineage to live on land.
