Are endospores produced by algae and fungi?
No, endospores are not produced by algae and fungi. Endospores are a type of dormant structure formed by certain types of bacteria as a survival mechanism in response to harsh environmental conditions. Algae and fungi have different mechanisms for survival and reproduction.
How does a green algae store food?
Green algae store food in the form of starch, which is produced through photosynthesis. Starch is stored in specialized organelles called chloroplasts. When the algae needs energy, it can break down the stored starch to release glucose for fuel.
What does it mean to say that algae fuel is carbon neutral?
Carbon neutral means that algae fuel does not affect the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Algae takes in carbon dioxide as it grows, then, when the fuel is burnt, this same carbon dioxide is released. No increase, just exactly the same amount. This is why biofuel is so much better than fossil fuel which releases carbon that had been hidden underground for millions of years, so adding to the levels in the atmosphere.
What are three facts about algae?
Algae produces more than 71% of the earth's oxygen. Some types of algae can live in snow. Some types of algae can live in boiling water.
What are the three types of multicellular algae?
The three types of multicellular algae are red algae, brown algae, and green algae. These groups are classified based on their pigments, cell wall composition, and overall appearance. Each type of algae plays a unique role in aquatic ecosystems.
What types of fuel is produced by synthetic genomics?
"Synthetic Genomics is a company working with Exxon/Mobil to genetically engineer algae, in an effort to create an algae-based fuel sustainable for long-term production."
Which branch of botany deals with algae?
Phycology is the study of algae. Some engineers look at algae as a source of biomass for fuel. Amazingly there are over 2,000 types of algae.
Are endospores produced by algae and fungi?
No, endospores are not produced by algae and fungi. Endospores are a type of dormant structure formed by certain types of bacteria as a survival mechanism in response to harsh environmental conditions. Algae and fungi have different mechanisms for survival and reproduction.
What is algae in the fuel?
It is an algae that grows in a diesel fuel tank. It can plug up a fuel filter in no time.

Do food crops need algae fuel?
No food crops don't need algae fuel because algae is a type of bacteria and what does bacteria do, bacteria kills plants.that is why food crops use other types of fuel. I'm just kidding I don't know I just like to be on the internet. But if this sounds good and people actually use this to write a report or something I would be happy. :):):):):):):):):):):):)
How can algae be used as a fuel source?
Algae fuel is any fuel made using algae. Algae are a type of simple organism, of which most are photosynthetic (they get their energy from the sun). The smallest algae are unicellular, the largest are the seaweeds that make up kelp forests. Some types of algae use sunlight to make oil, and if these algae are harvested and the oil extracted from them, the oil can be used in a variety of ways, including as a replacement for petroleum derived diesel fuel. Whatever portion of the algae which is not oil, is carbohydrates and proteins. These carbohydrates and proteins can be processed to produce butanol, a oily, energy-dense alcohol, which can be used as a direct gasoline substitute. The oil from algae can also be converted (using the same processes that are used on petroleum) into other types of fuel, such as biogasoline, and aviation biofuel. The non-oil components of algae can also be converted to other fuels besides butanol (although that's one of the most valuable producable fuels), such as methane and ethanol.

Why do you need algae to produced guppies?
You don't.
Can algae grow in diesel fuel?
No. Algae need sunlight to grow. Old truck drivers and uninformed people will insist they are growing algae in their fuel tanks. Most of the time it's a microbial colony growing between the water contaminated tank and the diesel fuel.
What are the three types of multicellular algae?
The three types of multicellular algae are red algae, brown algae, and green algae. These groups are classified based on their pigments, cell wall composition, and overall appearance. Each type of algae plays a unique role in aquatic ecosystems.
