𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝘗𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭!
Have you ever seen this plant washed up on a beach or underwater?
If you are from the Mediterranean region, most probably yes. But you might have thought it was an alga. Especially because not many people know that there are marine plants. They are called marine phanerogams or seagrasses and is possible to find them worldwide, with around 72 species recognised.
A curious fact about these plants is that they evolved back from land plants and not viceversa!
𝘗𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢 is an endemic species of the Mediterranean and is mostly disappeared, still living in a few small patches.

kelp is like
a plan't
Tumblr media
these fuckers stole the plant photosynthesis thing by swallowing a plant cell and making it work for them inside their own cells, and now they act like they're plants too (they're not even closely related)
don't feel bad for plants they did the same with cyanobacteria first

Dorma, will you be no longer my Lady... and become instead, my Bride? No sands need flow, Namor, while I weigh my answer. It is... yes!
