17 years, 10 months agored algae (Rhodophyta) are a large group of mostly multicellular, marine algae, including many notable seaweeds. Most of the coralline algae, which secrete calcium carbonate and play a major role in building coral reefs, belong here. Red algae such as dulse and nori are a traditional part of European and Asian cuisine and are used to make certain other products like agar and food additives.
parenchyma= The tissue characteristic of an organ, as distinguished from associated connective or supporting tissues.
pseudoparenchyma= Thin-walled, usually angular, randomly-arranged cells in fungi, that are tightly packed together. Often used to form walls in specialized structures such as fruitbodies. They are similar in appearance to the parenchyma cells found in plants but different in origin, hence the prefix, pseudo- =false.
