Answer: Dinoflagellates are a type of protist that are causative agent of red tides.

Explanation:

  • Red tides are thought to be caused by coastal pollution from sources like agricultural runoff, human sewage, and other pollutants, as well as warming ocean temperatures.
  • 5 Red tide events, for instance, have been rising throughout the Pacific coast of the United States since at least 1991. The frequent occurrence of red tide since it first came to light in 1983 can be used to determine the level of water pollution in the Philippines Bays.
  • When rivers discharge large amounts of organic matter into bays, hazardous algal blooms commonly ensue (HABs).
  • Like many HABs, this bloom is brought on by microscopic algae that poison fish and make shellfish unsafe to consume. Additionally, the poisons could make it harder to breathe the outside air. As the name implies, an algal bloom can cause the water to turn red.
