Probably the green algae, which descended from cyanobacteria. Seaweeds come in three colours, green, brown and red, and each has different photosynthetic mechanisms - not only chlorophyll.

The intertidal zone may have played an important part in the colonization of the land from aquatic plants.

The oldest ancestors of plants are believed to be green algae, which are aquatic organisms that share similarities with land plants. Green algae are considered the evolutionary precursors to the first land plants, which eventually evolved to become the diverse plant species we see today.
