Question

Do red algae produce oxygen?

Answer 1

Red algae:

1. It is the earliest kind of eukaryotic algae and is typically found in freshwater lakes.
2. Photosynthesis occurs in red algae.
3. When algae perform photosynthesis, oxygen is released into the atmosphere as a byproduct.
4. Algae use energy from sunlight to power the process of photosynthesis. As a result, algae are able to convert $C{O}_2$ and water into oxygen $\left(O_2\right)$.
