How about a better source (encyclopedias are great for primary school
projects)-

Bottom line about algae being plants - it depends. On the algae, and on
who/when is classifying them.

You must have missed the part where it says, "All algae lack true
leaves, roots, flowers, and other tissue structures found in higher
plants."




they may lack those, but they are still simple plants. They lack the
structure of HIGHER plants, but that doesn't mean that they are not

plants
