kelp
Tall marine algae
Kelp is large brown seaweed that grows in dense underwater forests in cold coastal waters.
It can reach lengths of over a hundred feet, anchored to the seafloor by root-like structures called holdfasts.
Kelp is harvested for food, fertilizer, and as a source of iodine and other compounds.
