Answer 2

Answer:

Hey buddy!!

The Chlamydomonas is green in color due to the presence of Chlorophyll a and Chlorophyll b pigments.

Explanation:

Chlamydomonas, a genus of biflagellated single-celled green algae (family Chlamydomonadaceae) found in soil, ponds, and ditches.

It is a free living aquatic unicellular and flagellate green algae (10-30 micron) that occurs in ammonium rich fresh water. Excessive growth of Chlamydomonas causes the green color of water. This alga is surrounded by sheath of mucilage, cellulose is absent in cell wall. Palmella stage is observed in presence of toxic chemicals.

Chlamydomonas species can become so abundant as to colour fresh water green, and one species, C. nivalis, contains a red pigment known as hematochrome, which sometimes imparts a red colour to melting snow.

Hope it helps :)
