Algae are photosynthetic, but they are also unicellular organisms (Euglena) and shares some of the common features with plants as well as animals. They move like animals and perform photosynthesis like plants. Therefore, they are classified into Protists, and not the Algae. Their most features resemble the non-photosynthetic protozoa, and not plants, and therefore, are put into the Protista. 
They also lack a cell wall, which is a feature of plants.
Some scientists advocate their classification in plants because of their sexual mode of reproductiona, and formation of spores.

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Option number 2 is correct. When you talk together in a group during a laboratory exercise, you are engaging in classroom scientific communication.

Explanation:

Any type of communication that is made regarding science is described as a scientific communication. This kind of communication generally involves talks about research, recent advances in any scientific topics or techniques, observations that one might have made on a particular science topic, asking another person about any science-related topic or techniques, etc.

If a scientist talks about any science topic to the public, then it would be a public scientific communication. A scientific communication made among scientists would be termed as professional scientific communication. Any science based communication that is made and kept private would be termed as private scientific communication.

Hence, option 2 is correct. A science based communication between students in a lab would be classroom scientific communication.
