The plant body in algae is always a thallus. It is not differentiated in root, stem and leaves. Algae range in size from minute unicellular plants (less than 1 µ in diameter in some planktons) to very large highly differentiated multicellular forms e.g., some sea-weeds.
Their forms may be colonial (loose or integrated by inter-connections of protoplasmic strands), filamentous (branched or un-branched), septate (branched or un-branched), non-septate or branched, multinucleate siphonaceous tube where the nuclear divisions occur without usual septa formation.
The algae reproduce by vegetative, asexual, and sexual methods. Vegetative reproduction is by fragmentation, where each fragment develops into a thallus. Asexual reproduction is by the production of flagellated zoospores which on germination give rise to new plants.
Algae are a diverse group of aquatic organisms that have the ability to conduct photosynthesis. Certain algae are familiar to most people; for instance, seaweeds (such as kelp or phytoplankton), pond scum or the algal blooms in lakes.
Algae are chlorophyll bearing autotrophic bodies with thalloid plant body. Thallus may be unicellular to multicellular, microscopic or macroscopic in structure.

Microbiology - Algae
Algae is an informal term for a large and diverse group of photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms. It is a polyphyletic grouping that includes species from multiple distinct clades.
Algae are sometimes considered plants and sometimes considered "protists" (a grab-bag category of generally distantly related organisms that are grouped on the basis of not being animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, or archaeans).

The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

How to Split Bills in the Odoo 17 POS ModuleCeline George
Bills have a main role in point of sale procedure. It will help to track sales, handling payments and giving receipts to customers. Bill splitting also has an important role in POS. For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.

2. INTRODUCTION
Algae are simple, chlorophyll bearing plants. Autotrophic organisms.
Mostly unicellular, others are aggregation of many similar cells
Study of Algae – Algology or Phycology
(Phykos - alga in Greek)
Algae varies in
Size
Habit
Habitat
Reproduction processes
4. Habitat
Abundantly present in sea water, fresh water, on damp soil, plants and animals,
rocks, stones, barks trees.
Algae are aquatic or terrestrial
Most of them are aquatic. Terrestrial forms are live in moist place
Aquatic algae may be marine of fresh water forms
They are either free living or attached forms
10. Some live as symbionts with fungi to form- Lichens
11. Cellularity
Exist in unicellular forms
Multicellular forms
Filamentous
Membranous
Blade like or tubular
Unicellular
They are single celled algae
They may be motile flagellated. Ex. Chlamydomonas
They may be non-motile coccoid. Ex. Chlorella
Chlorella
12. Multicellular forms
May be in the forms of colonies Ex. Volvox
in the form of filaments Ex. Spirogyra
Volvox
13. Filamentous
Simple or branched filamentous
algae
Simple filamentous Algae
It consist single row of cells Ex.
Ulothrix
May be free floating or attached
Simple filament of blue green algae
is called trichomes
Ulothrix
14. In some algae
The plant body (thallus) is
differentiated into root, stem and leaf
Eg. Sargassum
Fucus
Laminaria
Sargassum
Fucus
Laminaria
15. Structure of algae
The plant body is called thallus
It does not differentaiated into
root, stem, leaf and true tissues
May be prokaryotes or Eukaryotes
Prokaryotes
All blue green algae are prokaryotes
17. Cell wall
Cell wall is surrounded by a thin, rigid cell wall
Have an outermatrix lying outside the cellwall
Outer matrix is flexible & gelatinous like bacterial capsule
Nucleus
True nucleus is present
It has nuclear envelope with pores
With in the nucleus Nucleolus, Chromatin, Karyolymph is present.
18. Mitochondria
Structure of mitochondria varies greatly
Euglenoids have – discoid cristae
Green and red algae – lamellar cristae
Golden brown, Yellow green, Brown algae, diatoms – tubular cristae
19. Chloroplast
In algae chloroplast exist in different shapes
Chlamydomonas - cup shaped
Ulothrix - gridle shaped
Zygnemia - star shaped
Spirogyra - spiral shaped
20. CHLOROPLAST
It has membrane bound sac called
thylakoids
Thylakoids carry out the light reaction of
photosynthesis
These organelles are embedded in the
stroma where dark reactions is takes place
Also contains one or more spherical bodies
called pyrenoids
Pyrenoids synthesis and store the starch
material
21. Plastids (Chromatophores)
Contain pigments
There are 3 types
Chlorophylls
Carotenoids
Biliproteins or phycobilins
Chlorophyll
Green pigment
Five types of chlorophylls are present
Chlorophyll a – found in all classes of algae
Chlorophyll b
Chlorophyll c
Chlorophyll d
Chlorophyll e
Other types (b, c, d, e) are found in some algae
22. Carotenoids
Yellow, orange or red pigment
2 types – carotenes and xanthophylls
Carotene – 3 types
Carotene a, b and g
Xanthophylls – yellow in colour
Bili proteins
Protein pigments
Two types
Phycocyanin – blue in colour
Phycoerythrin – red in colour
These pigmetns are present in chloroplast
Flagella
Some algae possess flagella
Algae are motile
23. Reproduction
Occur in three ways
Vegetative
Asexual
Sexual
Vegetative
Fragmentation
Plant body thallus breaks up and each
fragmented part grows to form a new thallus
24. Asexual Reproduction
Occur by spore formation and binary
fission
Spore are formed in ordinary vegetative
cells or in specialized structure termed
sporangia
Sporangia produce two types of spores
Flagellated motile spore – zoospores
Non motile spores – aplanospores
27. Sexual reproduction
Occur by egg formation
Eggs are formed in unmodified vegetative cells called oogonia
Oogonia function as female structure
Sperms are produced in male reproductive structure called antheridia
In sexual reproduction these gametes fused together to produce diploid zygote
