    This document provides information about algae. It states that algae are protists that contain chlorophyll but lack true roots, stems, and leaves. Algae can be unicellular or multicellular and live in aquatic habitats. The document divides algae into 6 groups - unicellular forms like euglenoids, diatoms, and dinoflagellates, as well as multicellular red, brown, and green algae. Each algal group is then described in 1-2 paragraphs regarding their characteristics and habitats.
