Solution

Algae – Thallophytes
  • Plants that do not have well-differentiated body design fall in this group. They are commonly called algae.
  • Algae are chlorophyll-bearing, simple, thalloid, autotrophic and largely aquatic (both fresh water and marine) organisms.

[Thallus == a plant body not differentiated into stem, leaves, and roots and without a vascular system, typical of algae, fungi, lichens, and some liverworts].
