Seaweed is a diverse group of marine plants and algae that grow in the ocean, rivers, and other water bodies. It comes in a variety of colors, including green, brown, and red, and can range in size from tiny phytoplankton to large kelp forests. Seaweed plays a crucial role in marine ecosystems, providing food and habitat for a wide range of marine life. It is also an important resource for humans, used in food, cosmetics, fertilizers, and even as a source of biofuel. Rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, seaweed is considered a superfood and is a staple in many Asian cuisines. It grows by attaching itself to rocks or other surfaces in the water, absorbing nutrients directly from the surrounding water through its tissues.
