Hi friend,

here is your answer

please follow me

Answer:

The major difference between algae and protozoa is that algae are able to make their own food, as plants do, while protozoa ingest other organisms or organic molecules, as animals do.

Explanation:

Characteristics of Algae:

•Algae are photosynthetic organisms.

•Algae can be either unicellular or multicellular organisms.

•Algae lack a well-defined body, so, structures like roots, stems or leaves are absent.

•Algaes are found where there is adequate moisture.

•Reproduction in algae occurs in both asexual and sexual forms.

Characteristic of protozoa:

•Ciliophora (Ciliates) Motile covered with many, short cilia.

•Sarcomastigophora (Flagellates) Motile; have one or more long flagella.

•Apicomplexa (Sporozoa) Adult form is non-motile; many are parasites, and some can form spores.
