Algae, the Draft Little Benefit

alga
Algae
Algae is the designation for the algae in the plural. Algae are a group of autotrophs organism that can be said to have no obvious organs like those of plants are generally in the form of roots, stems, and leaves. For reasons never categorized as algae that talus plants. Algae also been classified as algae. However, the classification is not considered appropriate because it causes confusion when associated with understanding the meaning of a number of other aquatic plants such as hidrila example.

Grouping polemic Algae

Algae is said to be autotrophs organism because it can make your own meals. This is done by converting inorganic substances into organic matter with the help of energy, both solar energy and chemical energy. But until now, biologists have not found the right group for all types of algae there.In taxonomy, algae do not belong to a group or class of its own division.

Previously, studies on algae have long tried to enter into a group of algae, both in the single-celled or multicellular groups. However, it is felt to be appropriate because there is a mismatch on any other specific characteristics. Taxonomic experts agreed to separate algae in accordance with the particular characteristics of each is the type of algae. Taxonomy itself is part of the biological sciences that does the grouping of organisms based on a certain level or hierarchy.

Taxonomy of most of the highest or a more general nature, and getting to the bottom or lower it is more specific. This separation of the algae such as occurs in single-celled algae such as Euglena separated from multicellular algae. Unicellular algae are classified into protozoa, multicellular algae temporarily put in the thallophyta.

However, recently it was agreed that all types of algae may not be grouped into one klad (one offspring with a single common ancestor. Although alga-algae have been separated by the cell, but some single-celled algae that turned out to have a closer kinship with the partial-celled algae particular lot.

Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Algae

Types of algae that have a greenish-blue color has a prokaryotic cell structure as well as in bacteria. Therefore, this type of algae is often regarded as the bacteria with a name that means Cyanobacteria blue-green bacteria. However, these bacteria also have chlorophyll as well as on the plant that can perform photosynthesis directly. Thus, there is also a call Cyanophyceae or blue-green algae.

Been classified as even this algae in the kingdom Monera for the bacteria cells are prokaryotic or do not have a cell nucleus. And after further study, it turns out this algae is more characteristic of bacteria that was agreed as part of a group of bacteria. Currently, the blue-green bacteria are isolated in a separate kingdom, the Archaea.

Several other algal species have the structure of the eukaryotic cell and can perform photosynthesis, either by using chlorophyll as well as with other pigments that play a role in the assimilation of energy. All been classified as eukaryotic algae prostita, the microorganisms that are not included eukaryotes, animals, plants, or fungi.

But today, it is not considered valid because some types of algae such as red algae and green algae have a closer kinship with plants other than single-celled eukaryotes. Current taxonomic experts have agreed on the division of the phylum / divisio for eukaryotic algae-algae as follows:

1. Archaeplastida: Regnum Viridiplantae or Plantae (plants)
  • Phylum Chlorophyta (green algae)
  • Phylum Charophyta (rocky green algae)

2. Archaeplastida: Regnum incertae sedis
  • Phylum Rhodophyta (red algae)

3. Archaeplastida: Regnum incertae sedis
  • Phyla Glaucophyta

4. Superregnum Cabozoa: Regnum Rhizaria
  • Phylum Cercozoa
  • Class Chlorarachnia

5. Superregnum Cabozoa: Regnum Excavata
  • Phylum Euglenozoa

6. Regnum Chromalveolata: superphylum Chromista
  • Heterokontophyta phyla (or Heterokonta)
  • Class Bacillariophyceae (Diatomae)
  • Class Axodina
  • Class Bolidomonas
  • Class Eustigmatophyceae
  • Class Phaeophyceae (brown algae)
  • Class Chrysophyceae (golden algae)
  • Class Raphidophyceae
  • Class Synurophyceae
  • Class Xanthophyceae (algae blonde)
  • Phyla Cryptophyta
  • Phylum Haptophyta

7. Regnum Chromalveolata: superphylum Alveolata
  • Dinophyta phyla (or Dinoflagellates)
  • Utilize Algae to Human Health

When these algae crystal central Japan became one of the hot belle discussed both in the urban community as well as conversations online. Skyrocketing popularity of algae because it implies that these crystals can be used as medicine for the human body.

Medicinal properties of this type of algae have been found through research by Japanese scientists so named Crystal Japanese Algae. The researchers found that the content of the algae was Japan able to increase the activity of the human body's immune system. Increased activity of which is tasked with the development of killer cells to kill cancer cells.

A source said the Caucasian population has a habit of drinking water algae crystals from an early age. The habit is believed to be the way they maintain a healthy body so that it can live longer with age. Caucasian population was noted to have lifetimes on the average by the number of individuals who reach the age of more than 100 years. Caucasus is also believed to be the only place in the world which has a population of elderly age with achievement in the physical condition that is really healthy.

Another source said, a researcher Prof algae. Merile had stated that the Caucasus is never found in cases of diseases such as cancer and tuberculosis. Other algae a German researcher, Dr. Dressen, has examined this Japanese algae type crystals. Algae can also be used to address health problems such as heart disease, bladder disease, and respiratory diseases. Algae crystal can be obtained by raising and breeding. If a treatment is in accordance with its original habitat, algae can grow these crystals with good and fast. Way of breeding algae is relatively easy and can be done on a home scale.

The trick, three teaspoons of crystals incorporated into the algal plastic or glass containers that were given one liter of clean water. Type of container material used is recommended plastic, glass, or ceramic. Avoid placing the container made of metal such as stainless or aluminum. Water used to be really clean, do not contain chlorine, or sulfur.

Next, add as much sugar and two teaspoons of dried currants as many as seven. After that, let sit overnight or about 12 hours. Crystal soaking water is drunk as a medicine. Average consumption of just one liter per day but do it every day until the symptoms of the illness had not felt anymore. Algae that have been soaked crystals can be maintained longer with the materials and the same steps.

Benefits of Algae

Algae mainly species of marine algae has been widely used for the absorption of heavy metals from waters. Results from various studies indicate that some species of algae have the ability to absorb metal ions significantly. In the cytoplasm of the cell walls in algae, there is a functional group such as hydroxyl groups, sulfudril, carboxyl, sulfonate, iomodazol, amino, and sulfate. This function groups that have the ability to bind metal ions, either in a state of living and dead cells or in the form of biomass. 

Unfortunately, the ability of algae to absorb metal ions can not be used optimally because of limitations in the algae itself. Weaknesses that limit its ability, among other very small size, its density is low, and it is easily damaged due to the influence of other microorganisms. Various means have been undertaken to overcome these weaknesses. One is by way of using biomass mobilization matrix polymer, oxide, mixed oxide, and carbon.
