What are algae? simple, non-flowering, and typically aquatic plants of a large
assemblage that includes the seaweeds and many single-
celled forms . Algae contain chlorophyll but lack true stems,
roots , leaves, and vascular tissue.

• What is photosynthesis:
• Date: 1898
synthesis of chemical compounds with the aid of radiant energy and
especially light; especially : formation of carbohydrates from carbon
dioxide and a source of hydrogen (as water) in the chlorophyll-containing
tissues of plants exposed to light (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/photosynthesis)
• It is an improbable process (uphill reaction)

• It is an improbable process (uphill reaction)
• Oxygenic photosynthesis is one of the key fundamental biological
process which support life on the earth.
• Chloroplast are responsible for trapping light energy and convert it
to Chemical energy

• Photoautotrophy
– Light + inorganic nutrients
– Most microalgae
• Heterotrophy
– Organic compounds (dark)
– Some species (esp. greens, euglenoids & dinos)
• Mixotrophy
– Mixture of phototrophy + heterotrophy
• Phagotrophy

Where is the ‘specific growth rate with
dimension of 1/t
Eqn 1 can be integrated (x=x0 at t=0)
x = x0et (2)
Eqn 2. can be solved to:
ln x/x0 = t (3)
