Algae is (are) the most prevalent plant in the ocean. Indeed, the ONLY plant in the ocean. Seaweed, kelp, etc. are all different forms of algae. There are no rooted plants like we see on land, though some terrestrial plants, like mangroves, can live with their roots in salt water. Some macroalgae (like kelp) have "holdfasts" that attach them to rocks on the sea bed, but they are not true, nutrient-absorbing roots like terrestrial plants.
