Answer:

Red algae are found in great depths in oceans where relatively little light penetrates. In the depth of the sea, the amount of R - phycoerythrin is more in red algae and because of this pigment, their color is red. Penetration power is maximum in ultraviolet and violet light.

Answer:

Red algae is mostly likely to be found in deep water. This has to do with the different wavelengths of light and how deep they can penetrate water. Red light has the longest wavelength of the visible spectrum which means it penetrates water the least.

Red algae are able to grow in depth of seas as compared to green algae because of the presence of more quantity of pigment phycoerythrin in red algae growing at depth.

Where are red algae found? Red algae are commonly found in coral reefs and tide pools. They have the ability to survive at a greater depth than other algae because the pigment Phycoerythrin absorbs the blue light that can penetrate deeper than any other light wave.
