Step-by-step explanation:

How are kelp adapted to their environment?

Although kelps resemble land plants, they are uniquely adapted to life in cool, clear, moving water. They depend on moving water to provide a steady supply of nutrients for photosynthesis. As water flows by the blades, their serrated edges help to increase water mixing.
