what is called algae?
Algae belong to a large group of organisms called eukaryotes - a Latin word meaning ""true nucleus"". They store their genetic material in a tiny, membrane-bound structure called a nucleus. Algae are divided into groups that reflect the colour most commonly exhibited by members, although not all will be the definitive colour. For example most green algae are green, but some are brown, red, orange, or yellow. Although there are many types of algae,Algae and cyanobacteria are tiny organisms that occur naturally in saltwater and freshwater.
