Hey,
-Algae are usually aquatic, either marine or fresh water. only a few algae occur in terrestrial habitats
-Their body is thallus like.it may be unicellular, colonial filamentous,parenchymatous.
-Nearly 50% of total carbon di oxide fixation on earth is performed by algae.
-Their cellwall is made of cellulose and other materials.
-Algae, like other aquatic plants are covered by mucilage which helps in protection of algae from epiphytic growth and decaying effect of water.
-Vascular tissues are absent.
-Nutrition is photosynthetic.
-Embryo stage is absent.
-Various types of life cycles are seen
ex- haplontic, diplontic, diplohaplontic.
ex-Chlorella,Spirulina,Porphyra, Laminaria etc.
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.
