one abiotic factor affecting the abundance and distribution of red algae (scientific name rhodophyta) is sunlight as red algae depends almost only on sunlight as it needs this to carry out photosynthesis to gain their energy. Without the required sunlight, red algae cannot perform photosynthesis, which means they won't have the energy they need and therefore will find it difficult to survive.
Red algae require specific abiotic factors like light for photosynthesis, water for metabolic processes, and nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus for growth. They also thrive in cool, nutrient-rich waters with adequate levels of dissolved oxygen. Maintaining suitable water chemistry and temperature is crucial for the survival and growth of red algae.
All living things are biotic factors.
um no algae is biotic because it is a plant um no algae is biotic because it is a plant
Yes, red algae and red marine algae refer to the same group of algae that are predominantly found in marine environments. They are known for their red pigmentation due to the presence of phycoerythrin pigments.
Algae would be considered a biotic factor, as it is a living organism. Abiotic factors are non-living components of an ecosystem, such as sunlight, temperature, water, and soil.
Red algae contain red pigments called phycoerythrins, which are responsible for their characteristic red color. These pigments help the algae absorb certain wavelengths of light that penetrate deeper in the water column, allowing red algae to thrive in lower light conditions compared to green algae.

== == Abiotic Needs are needs that an animal has to have, but it has to be abiotic need or nonliving need
Biotic: The algae they eat. Abiotic: The water they depend on.

Algae: Green algae, even red algae but phycoerythrin over populates it which gives the red algae its red color.

red algae.............
no
Algae is a plant, therefore it needs light. The photic zone has light, so that is where algae will grow. actually algae are of diffrent types red, brown green and yellow. Green algae and brown algae(stipe and frond) are usually in photic zone however red algae and bluegreen algae also inhabit aphotic zone On account of presence of pigments r-phycocyanin and r-phycoerythrin red algae can also absorb diffused UV light so can also prepare food in aphotic zone
Well red algae needs to photosynthesise to stay alive, so it needs to be within the range of the sun. If it does grow deeper than other algal species it may be because it can detect light better than others.
