Which organisms are responsible for Red Snow?
Asked by patra04011965 | 08 Aug, 2019, 06:46: PM
Expert Answer
- The phenomenon on red snow occurs due to a green alga, Chlamydomonas nivalis.
- The growth of this algae imparts a red colour to the snow.
- The red colour of this alga is due to a bright red carotenoid pigment, which protects the chloroplast from intense visible and also ultraviolet radiation, as well as absorbing heat, which provides the alga with liquid water as the snow melts around it.
