The books I have been reading lately consider it separate from plants
and animals both, it's just algae.

those numbers I listed combined fresh and salt water types.

I'm not a biologist, but the difference I'd use would be the cell

Plants have roots, stalks, leaves, etc, including a circulatory system.

Algae doesn't, it is just a single structure.

Algae is a plant (chlorophyll) and have a cell wall. dont need roots, stalks, stems,
etc. Ingrid
