Seaweed is not classified as a plant because it belongs to a different biological category known as algae. Unlike true plants, which are part of the kingdom Plantae, algae can be found in multiple kingdoms, including Protista and Plantae, depending on their characteristics. Seaweeds lack the complex structures like roots, stems, and leaves that define higher plants. Additionally, they often have simpler reproductive and cellular structures compared to true plants.
Seaweeds are classified into three major groups; the green algae, the brown algae, and the red algae. Placement of seaweed into one of these groups is based on the pigments and colouration existing in the plant. Other seaweed features that are used to classify algae include: cell wall composition, reproductive characteristics, and the chemical nature of the photosynthetic products. Plant structure, form and shape are additional characteristics used to classify seaweed.
