  1. yes i see them every day

    they are algae

    not all algae

    but some like the sailors eyeball for instance

    are a type of algae

    that grows on coral reefs

    it is about the size and shap0e of an eyeball

    hence it's name

    it is composed of abut three very large cells

    the largest in the plant kingdom

    and drfiting within the cytoplasm of these cells

    are the photosystems required for photosynthesis

    an other type of brown algae

    is long and filamentous threads

    which attach onto the corals

    they in some instances

    suffocate the corals and kill them

    other drift around as plankton

    and look more like small bundles of sticks

    so yes

    r5ootless, stemless and leafless plants exist

    and you will find many different types in the ocean


  2. Algae may meet those requirements.

  3. no algae still is root we dont see that root .

  4. yes the parasitic plant called the Rafflesia they don't use photosynthesis and they are even pollinated by flies

  5. Yes. Division Bryophyta comprises plants (mostly mosses) which possess  thalli (singular: thallus) which is a plant body lacking true leaf, stem and root.

    A search on wikipedia or google for "thallus" or "bryophyte" might help to understand these plants

  6. Well, they won't be vascular plants. Perhaps you're thinking of bryophytes:

    Added: Algae are no longer classified as plants.
