Is the bright green seaweed next to the sycamore leaf Sea Lettuce? Does anyone know what the Thin Strips of Seaweed are?

Description: Three in one:- The very bright green seaweed is just like salad lettuce when it has begun to dissolve. Is this Sea Lettuce? In the same picture there are thin strips of seaweed which look as if someone has chopped up a length of cassette tape. Can anyone name these? I don't know what the thin pink threads of seaweed are either. On the other hand, I think there are Fucus vesiculosus and Fucus serratus in the photo too. Apologies if there are too many seaweeds in the one picture but once I know what each is, I'll see if I can find examples separated and distinct.
