1.1.1 General needs of photosynthetic micro-organisms

The term "photosynthetic micro-organisms", which covers microalgae, cyanobacteria (plant cells, generally referred to here as "microalgae") and certain bacteria (animal kingdom), characterizes microscopic organisms that grow through photosynthesis. Unlike higher plants, which use the same process, microalgae grow in an aqueous environment, with light enabling them to grow by absorbing the necessary minerals and inorganic...
