Protists-Algae












Hey guys I'm back with another blog post and today we will be talking about protists and Algae. Lets just get started now, no intro me run out of ideas :(








The first type of protists we will be talking is the green Algae, YAY.  These algae are plant like organisms. These algae fuel most of are oxygen and the most important one.





















The next type of protists is the red protists. These protest live deep in the ocean and have a red pigment witch they use to get food from under the water using photosynthesis to make there food.
















Another type of protest is the brown algae. Most brown algae is found in the ocean that is also seaweed and kelp.












Now for some other  protest that doesn't start with algae, these are the euglenoids, Diatoms, and the Dinoflagellates. All of these are Single celled organism. Euglenoids have a whip-like flagella that they use to move and a eyespot that are sensitive to light. Diatoms cell wall are rich in silica which is the mane element in glass. Dinoflagellates have a speacle flagella that will make them in a circle and are responsible for red tides which are harmful algae food.
