Seaweeds are algae that liven in the sea or in brackish water. Scientists generally call them “benthic marine algae”, which just means “attached algae that live in the sea”. Seaweeds come in three basic colours: red, brown and green. Red and brown algae are almost exclusively marine, whilst green algae are also common in freshwater and in terrestrial situations.
