More Explorations
So I had to go to the lab on my birthday today, but it was still fun because my MicroAquarium gifted me with some new organisms to look at. I saw a new amoeba today that had a single flagella and another amoeba with a flagella coming out each end. I identified the first amoeba as Paranema. Then while I was observing another amoeba, a Rotifer decided to pass by and devour it. I also saw some flatworms or Stenostomum swimming around. I saw a bunch of Paramecium bursaria as usual. I saw a lot more cyanobacteria than I have seen in my last labs. And then I was scanning the stem of a Plant B, I saw something very interesting. Inside one of the bladders of Plant B, Utrichularia gibba, I noticed what looked like hundreds of paramecium squirming around. I studied them for a while then followed a passing flatworm. I was also able to get a couple good photo's during this lab. All in all it was a successful lab. Thank you for reading.
