Summary
| Description |
English: Examples of different types of marine algae, or seaweeds, including brown, red, and green types Each type of algae has different chains of sugars, known as polysaccharides, which help make up their cells. This means that each fish needs special kinds of enzymes, or molecular scissors, to help break each alga (singular of algae) down into smaller nutrients that are easier to digest. If they do not have the right enzymes, then they will not be able to break down their algae food. |
