Answer 2

Algae are autotrophic in nature because-

• Algae are chlorophyll bearing, simple organisms that can make their food by the process of photosynthesis. The process takes place in the presence of sunlight. It uses carbon dioxide and water to form glucose. Chlorophyll is involved in trapping the sun's energy.
• Algae are primary producers that fix almost half of the carbon dioxide present in the environment.
• As they are autotrophic, they are placed under the kingdom Plantae that includes all plants.
