microalgae
Microalgae are microscopic, often unicellular photosynthetic organisms that live in aquatic environments and lack the roots, stems, and leaves of higher plants. Despite their simple structure, they share core photosynthetic machinery and metabolic pathways with land plants, making them valuable models for studying photosynthesis, stress responses, and carbon fixation at the cellular level. Their fast growth and genetic tractability also make them useful systems for exploring plant evolutionary biology and for biotechnological applications like biofuel and pigment production.
