The leaves of gymnosperms
1. | Are not adapted to withstand extremes of temperature |
2. | May be simple or compound |
3. | Are needle shaped in all members |

Members of red algae are mostly marine, occurring both at surface water and at great depths in oceans except for a few fresh water species. These algae usually
1. | Reproduce asexually by motile spores |
2. | Show oogamous reproduction by motile gametes |
3. | Lack of chlorophyll-a and fucoxanthin |
4. | Reproduce vegetatively by fragmentation |
