How is food stored in chlorophyceae??? Class 11 biology ☕☕☕
Answers
Chlorophyceae are one of the classes of green algae.
They are usually green due to the dominance of pigments such as chlorophyll- a, chlorophyll- b and beta- carotene.
Most of the members have one or more storage bodies called pyrenoids in the chloroplast.
Pyrenoids contains proteins and starch.
Some store food in the form of oil droplets.
Eg- 1)Chlorella produces food rich in proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals.
2) It also yields antibiotic chlorellin.
