Difference between Brown algae and Edible seaweed

Brown algae vs. Edible seaweed

The brown algae (singular: alga), comprising the class Phaeophyceae, are a large group of multicellular algae, including many seaweeds located in colder waters within the Northern Hemisphere. Edible seaweed, or sea vegetables, are algae that can be eaten and used in the preparation of food.

Similarities between Brown algae and Edible seaweed

Brown algae and Edible seaweed have 13 things in common (in Unionpedia): Algae, Alginic acid, Ectocarpales, Fucales, Green algae, Himanthalia elongata, Kelp, Polysaccharide, Porphyra, Postelsia, Red algae, Sargassum, Seaweed.

Algae

Algae (singular alga) is an informal term for a large, diverse group of photosynthetic organisms that are not necessarily closely related, and is thus polyphyletic.

Alginic acid

Alginic acid, also called algin or alginate, is a polysaccharide distributed widely in the cell walls of brown algae, where through binding with water it forms a viscous gum.

Green algae

The green algae (singular: green alga) are a large, informal grouping of algae consisting of the Chlorophyta and Charophyta/Streptophyta, which are now placed in separate divisions, as well as the more basal Mesostigmatophyceae, Chlorokybophyceae and Spirotaenia.
