  1. Did... did you know that the algae in the Caulerpa genus are unicellular organisms? Like... they consist of only one cell (with multiple nuclei, but still one cell)?
    We discovered it only now, after seeing these species of algae so many times... incredible.
    Unbelievable. Amazing.

    Effect of a giant meteorite impact on #Paleoarchean surface environments and life: Nadja Drabon et al. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2408

    "#bacteria are hardy, and following impact, bacterial life bounced back quickly. With this came sharp spikes in populations of #unicellular organisms that feed off the elements phosphorus and iron."

  15. El alga invasora y tóxica Caulerpa taxifolia puede parecer la típica alga pluricelular, pero tampoco es el caso. Se trata de un alga unicelular multinucleada que alcanza 20-60 cm de altura, siendo el organismo unicelular más grande que se conoce.📷Krzysztof Ziarnek #alga #algae #unicelular #unicellular

  25. Meet your oxygen-makers

    Living diatoms generate about 20 to 50 percent of the oxygen produced on the planet each year, take in over 6.7 billion tonnes of silicon each year from the waters in which they live, and constitute nearly half of the organic material found in the oceans. The shells of dead diatoms can reach as much as a half-mile (800 m) deep on the ocean floor.

  41. The transition from #unicellular to #multicellular #life was one of a few major events in the history of life that created new opportunities for more complex biological systems to evolve.

    According to a study from 2019, experimental populations evolved multicellular structures not observed in unselected control populations.

    I was under the impression that multicellularity may have posed an #evolutionary bottleneck. Clearly that is not the case.
