The status of algae in aquatic food chain is (a) Producer.
Explanation:
- All algae contain chlorophyll but most lack leaves, roots, vascular tissue, and stems.
- They play a vital role in aquatic ecosystems by forming the energy base of the food web for all aquatic organisms.
- As autotrophic organisms algae convert water and carbon dioxide to sugar through the process of photosynthesis.
- Aquatic food chain is occur in aquatic habitat where one organism is eaten up by another organism and thus the chain goes on.
- Aquatic food chain can be either small or large.
- Algae are the ultimate source of food and energy for other organisms in aquatic ecosystems. As primary producers algae form the basis of the aquatic food web.
- Ecologically algae are at the base of the food chain.
- They are the beginning of the transfer of solar energy to biomass that transfers up trophic levels to the top predators.
- Multicellular examples of algae include the giant kelp and brown algae. Unicellular examples include diatoms euglenophyta and dinoflagellates.
- Most algae require a moist or watery environment hence, they are ubiquitous near or inside water bodies.
