Basically the same way, but instead of absorbing gasses through the air, it’s through the water. They don’t have stomata (air holes) that are found on plant leaves that exist on land and I believe they can absorb carbon directly through their cell walls.
So I know it’s not a tree, but how does algae survive underwater?
Algae can get by with dissolved gases in the water
