  1. Red Algae Algae of a Reddish Persuasion By Steven Walter

  2. Information of Importance • Multicellular Autotrophs • Red-colored due to accessory pigments • Lack flagella and centrioles, but have chloroplasts

  3. Life Cycle • Gametophase: produces sperm and egg which fuse for Carposporophyte phase • Carposporophyte: Germinates into Tetrasporophytes. • Tetrasporophyte: Germinates into Gametophyte phase.

  4. Factoids of Fact • Due to extreme nonexistence of flagella, gametes must use the water to float to each other; most red algae live in the water. • Between 6,500 and 10,000 species. • Two cell walls- The outer wall can be “harvested” and used to produce agar gel

  5. El Fin Have a nice day.
