What organisms are in phylum chlorophyta?
Chlorophyta: Green Algae. Examples: Chlorella, Chlamydomonas, Spirogyra, Ulva. Green seaweeds.
What is a chlorophyta mention with example?
Chlorophyta is a taxonomic group (a phylum) comprised of green algae that live in marine habitats. Some species have even become adapted to thriving in extreme environments, such as deserts, arctic regions, and hypersaline habitats. The predominant pigment is chlorophyll (particularly, a and b).
How many classes of chlorophyta are there?
three classes
There are some 8,000 species of chlorophytes, ranging in size from microscopic to visibly large. There are three classes of Chlorophyta.
What kingdom is chlorophyta?

Is Chlorophyta and chlorophyceae same?
The Chlorophyceae are one of the classes 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….

Is Chlorophyta eukaryotic or prokaryotic?
In older classification systems, it refers to a highly paraphyletic group of all the green algae within the green plants (Viridiplantae) and thus includes about 7,000 species of mostly aquatic photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms.
What are the general characteristics of chlorophyta?
What is the order of chlorophyta?
Order: Volvocales (i) The order Volvocales includes about 60 genera and 500 species. (ii) The algae of this order are mainly fresh water forms. (iii) The thallus may be unicellular e.g., Chlamydomonas or motile colony e.g., Volvox, Eudorina and Pandorina.
