D
Zooplankton
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Algae are the main producer in aquatic habitats. Some examples of chlorophyll are Chlamydomonas, Volvox, Spirogyra and Chara. The other reason is that green algae have a rigid cell wall made up of an inner layer of cellulose and an outer layer of pectose.

Detailed explanation-2: -What types of freshwater algae are there? The main groups of algae found in streams are the green algae (Chlorophyta), red algae (Rhodophyta), blue-green algae (Cyanobacteria) and diatoms (Bacillariophyta).

Detailed explanation-3: -All plants, algae, and cyanobacteria which photosynthesize contain chlorophyll “a". A second kind of chlorophyll is chlorophyll “b", which occurs only in “green algae” and in the plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -1 Chlorophylls. Chlorophylls are green, lipid-soluble pigments, found in all algae, higher plants and cyanobacteria, which carry out photosynthesis [40].

Detailed explanation-5: -Chlorophyll is found in virtually all photosynthetic organisms, including green plants, cyanobacteria, and algae. It absorbs energy from light; this energy is then used to convert carbon dioxide to carbohydrates.
