2. Micrasterias - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrasterias

   Micrasterias displays a bilateral symmetry, with two mirror image semi-cells joined by a narrow isthmus containing the nucleus of the organism. This dual semi-cell structure is unique to the group of green algae to which Micrasterias belongs. Each semi-cell contains a single large chloroplast, the site of photosynthesis for Micrasterias.

3. Acetabularia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetabularia

   Acetabularia is a genus of green algae in the family Polyphysaceae. [4] Typically found in subtropical waters, Acetabularia is a single-celled organism, but gigantic in size and complex in form, making it an excellent model organism for studying cell biology. [5]

4. Pandorina - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandorina

   Pandorina is a genus of green algae composed of 8, 16, or sometimes 32 cells, held together at their bases to form a sack globular colony surrounded by mucilage.The cells are ovoid or slightly narrowed at one end to appear keystone- or pear-shaped.

5. Algae - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algae

   Algae (UK: / ˈ æ l ɡ iː / AL-ghee, US: / ˈ æ l dʒ iː / AL-jee; [3] sg.: alga / ˈ æ l ɡ ə / AL-gə) is an informal term for any organisms of a large and diverse group of photosynthetic eukaryotes, which include species from multiple distinct clades.

6. Volvox - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvox

   Volvox is a polyphyletic genus of chlorophyte green algae in the family Volvocaceae. Volvox species form spherical colonies of up to 50,000 cells, and for this reason they are sometimes called globe algae. They live in a variety of freshwater habitats, and were first reported by Antonie van Leeuwenhoek in 1700.

8. Eudorina - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eudorina

   Eudorina is a paraphyletic genus in the volvocine green algae clade. [1] Eudorina colonies consist of 16, 32 or 64 individual cells grouped together. Each individual cell contains flagella which allow the colony to move as a whole when the individual cells beat their flagella together.

9. Green algae - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_algae

   Green algae are often classified with their embryophyte descendants in the green plant clade Viridiplantae (or Chlorobionta). Viridiplantae, together with red algae and glaucophyte algae, form the supergroup Primoplantae, also known as Archaeplastida or Plantae sensu lato. The ancestral green alga was a unicellular flagellate. [20]
