Answer:
The members of class Rhodophyceae are commonly called as Red algae.
Explanation:
The red colour is due to the predominance of the red pigment,
r-phycoerythrin in their body.Majority of the red algae are marine with greater concentrations found in the warmer areas.They occur in both well-lighted regions close to the surface of water and also at great depths in oceans where relatively little light penetrates.
Major pigments- chlorophyll a,d,phycoerythrin
stored food-floridean starch
cell wall- made up of cellulose,pectin and poly sulphate esters
