Brown algae use r strategy in reproduction, as they don't tend to their offspring at all.

Some species of Brown Algae use sexual reproduction, while others use asexual.
Sexual: Some species, such as the giant kelps, are diploid, meaning they have a complete set of chromosomes from each parent. They release egg cells and flagellated sperm cells into the water, and the sperm swim through the water and are helped by chemical signals (pheromones) to find an egg.
Asexual: Asexual reproduction can happen through mitotic or meiotic divisions.
There is a sexual alternation of generations in some brown algae, meaning that they regularly alternate between asexual and sexual reproduction between generations.
