Is spirulina the same as seaweed?

Spirulina belongs to Cyanophyta, Cyanophyta and Spirulina, and is an ancient low-level prokaryotic single-cell or multicellular aquatic plant. It is 200-500μm long and 5- 10μm wide. It looks like a clockwork and is spiral blue-green, so it is also called blue-green algae. It is native to alkaline lakes in Mexico and tropical Chad in Central Africa.

"Seaweed" is a general term for marine algae such as kelp, laver, Undaria pinnatifida and cauliflower. It grows in the sea and is a cryptophyte in the plant kingdom. Algae include several different kinds of organisms that produce energy through photosynthesis. They are considered simple plants.

Extended data:

Algae grow in the shallow sea area below the low tide line-the place where the ocean meets the land;

Here, the impact of the waves is relatively mild, the sea water is rich in minerals and the sun is abundant. Both red algae and brown algae contain chlorophyll, although they are different in color. They can use sunlight for photosynthesis to make food. They can do photosynthesis.

The released oxygen is indispensable for animals to breathe; Seaweed plays an important role in making the marine world so colorful and lively.
