Esperanza González Apr 27, 2010:
Algae "Alga" singular, "algae" plural. Simon and Schuster's International Dictionary.
Marià Pitarque Apr 27, 2010:
Las espirulinas son en realidad cianobacterias (Arthrospira platensis y Arthrospira maxima), y no algas como se creía anteriormente. Las cianobacterias son las únicas bacterias capaces de realizar la fotosíntesis oxigénica.
