Short description आकृति विज्ञान

Green thallus; expanded into thin, glossy broad sheets with a lobed or undulating margin. Two layers of cells in cross-section; cells polyhedral in surface view and arranged in rather longitudinal rows. Blades up to 30 cm in length (Ref. 80758).

जीवविज्ञान     शब्द संग्रह (उदाहरणार्थ epibenthic)

Edible. Used as medicine and source of vitamins E, A, and B1 (Ref. 80758). Also has the potential use as animal feeds in the form of ground meal (Ref. 26875). Grows in intertidal areas exposed to air during low tide, in shallow water near shores, or attached to other seaweed species such as Sargassum (Ref. 80758). Often detached and free-floating at midtide (Ref. 801). Abundantly found in areas with varying salinity, and develops rapidly in nutrient-rich waters; thus, common in polluted areas (Ref. 26875).
