Chlorophytes are eukaryotic organisms composed of cells with a variety of coverings or walls, and usually a single green chloroplast in each cell. [4] They are structurally diverse: most groups of chlorophytes are unicellular, such as the earliest-diverging prasinophytes, but in two major classes (Chlorophyceae and Ulvophyceae) there is an evolutionary trend toward various types of complex ...
Depending on the species, Chlorophyceae can grow unicellular (e.g. Chlamydomonas), colonial (e.g. Volvox), filamentous (e.g. Ulothrix), or multicellular. [example needed] They are usually green due to the presence of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b; they can also contain the pigment beta-carotene.
An example of Chlorophyceae genus Pediastrum.. The Chlorophyceae are a class of green algae, distinguished mainly on the basis of ultrastructural morphology.They are usually green due to the dominance of pigments chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b.
This category contains valid Chlorophyta species names. Alternate names (i.e. junior synonyms) are not included here. Italicized entries are articles about species in monotypic genera; these are redirected to their appropriate genus article.
Chlorella is a genus of about thirteen species of single-celled green algae of the division Chlorophyta. The cells are spherical in shape, about 2 to 10 μm in diameter, and are without flagella. Their chloroplasts contain the green photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll-a and -b.
Volvox colony: 1) Chlamydomonas-like cell, 2) Daughter colony, 3) Cytoplasmic bridges, 4) Intercellular gel, 5) Reproductive cell, 6) Somatic cell.. Volvox is a polyphyletic genus in the volvocine green algae clade. [2]
Chloropicophyceae is a class of green algae in the division Chlorophyta that, along with Picocystophyceae, coincides with the traditional "prasinophyte clade VII". [1] Chloropicophyceae has a single order, Chloropicales with a single family, Chloropicaceae .
