Stipes are basically stems of the kelp. hope this helped :)
The main parts of the kelp plant used for medicinal purposes are its blades (leaves) and stipes (stems). These parts are rich in nutrients like iodine, vitamins, and minerals, which contribute to their medicinal properties. Kelp supplements are commonly used to support thyroid health, promote weight loss, and boost overall well-being.
the stipes protect the glossa -- the tongue
the thallus (or body) consists of flat or leaf-like structures known as blades. Blades originate from elongated stem-like structures, the stipes. So they dont move on their own but if broken they float and move along the currents .

Kelp is a type of large brown seaweed that typically grows in underwater forests in shallow coastal waters. It is characterized by its long, flexible stipes (stems), broad flat blades (leaves), and gas-filled bladders that help it float towards the sunlight. Kelp can grow rapidly, sometimes up to 18 inches in a day, and it provides essential habitat and food for various marine species. Additionally, it plays a significant role in coastal ecosystems by helping to stabilize the ocean floor and reduce erosion.

They can't protect themselves from herbivores.
No, a kelp is not a consumer to a kelp bass. Kelp is a primary producer, as it performs photosynthesis to create energy, while a kelp bass is a consumer that feeds on smaller organisms, including fish and invertebrates. In an ecological context, the relationship is producer (kelp) to primary consumer (kelp bass), not consumer to consumer.
