So I have this brown unknown algae and my science teacher said I could borrow his microscope to identify what it is. So how do I figure out what this algae is with a microscope? Thanks
 
With a microscope you'll be able to see the individual cells that make up the algae. Once you know what the cell or cells look like you can find many identification keys online to determine which species you have.

Hope these are good enough
