Algaí

Laurencia, Alga dearg na mara, ó Hawaii.

Is plandaí simplí fótaisintéiseacha iad na hAlgaí, cuid díobh aoncheallach agus cinn eile ilcheallach. Is plandaí uisce iad a bhformhór agus glaoightear feamainn ar na cinn is móire agus is coimpléascach. Meastar iad i measc 'na bplandaí' mar gheall ar a gcumas fótaisintéiseach, agus 'simplí', toisc nach bhfuil orgáin leithleacha na bplandaí uaisle acu (m.sh. duileoga, fréamhacha nó fíocháin soithíocha). Is féidir iad a idirdhealú ó protozoa, mar nach bhfuil an cumas fótaisintéiseacha ag na protozoa. Tá go leor díobh photoautotrophic, cé go mbíonn grúpaí acu mixotrophic, ag fáil fuinnimh ní amháin ó a gcumas fótaisintéiseacha, ach freisin ó iontógáil nó comhshamhlú carbóin orgánach tríd osmotrophy, myzotrophy, nó phagotrophy.
