Answer:

Many algae consist of only one cell, while the largest have millions of cells. In large, macroscopic algae, groups of cells are specialized for specific functions, such as anchorage, transport, photosynthesis, and reproduction; such specialization indicates a measure of complexity and evolutionary advancement.
