👉 Campsiophora is a genus of algae found in freshwater and marine environments, primarily in saltwater habitats. They are characterized by their large size and specialized cells that include numerous capillaries or microvilli, allowing for efficient gas exchange while also facilitating nutrient uptake and photosynthesis. This species plays an important role in aquatic ecosystems as they contribute to the production of oxygen through respiration and serve as a food source for many other organisms.
