MIYour favorite microscope bro 🫥 has upgraded his camera game 😆.
I hope to bring y'all better, more interesting videos and maybe you'll notice the difference in today's post.
Anyways, this time we're looking at an algae called Volvox. 🔬
I've been wanting to do a video on Volvox for a while, but finally have the equipment to do it justice.
Volvox are actually colonies of hundreds to thousands of smaller cells that work together to do lots of things.
Some are moving the colony towards a light source for photosynthesis, some are making the food, and others are reproducing.
You can find them in places like freshwater ponds that get plenty of sunlight.
They are super fragile and need steady conditions to thrive.
Please let me know if you enjoyed this style of filming as I'm always looking for ways to improve!
And if you're new here, I post videos of microorganisms, crystals, and other interesting substances under a microscope. Give this page a follow to see more. 😆
Best,
Alex
