This is a single-celled organism called Loxodes, and it is about to die. Loxodes have pigment granules that give them a yellowish-brown coloration, but they also make the organisms sensitive to light—though only when there is a high level of oxygen in the water. When light hits these pigment granules, it excites the pigment chemically and triggers a chain reaction that disassembles the entire cell membrane, almost like pulling a loose thread from a sweater. . Loxodes clings to life, its biologic

Ciliate in a marine sample! It is a single-celled organism whose movements are unlike anything I’ve seen before. Like all ciliates, it uses hairlike structures called cilia to move around. The guess is that it is from the family Trachelocercidae. Shot on an iPhone 14 Pro with a Swift 380B microscope using an ilabcam ultra adapter. #ciliate #microbes #microbiology #microscope #microscopy #microbenotes Video Credit: @microhobbyist | Microbe Notes

This ciliate thought it had found the perfect meal — a long chain of cyanobacteria. It grabbed on, pulled, twisted, swallowed… but it was as awkward as having spaghetti on a first date. You keep the eye contact, you slurp and slurp, and somehow the spaghetti just keeps going, disappearing into your mouth slower than your dignity. 😂 . Cyanobacteria may be small, but they have an ancient trick for survival: join together into long, filamentous chains. A single cell is easy prey. But link hundreds

Hello everyone! This is a single-celled organism, Loxodes! It's viewed in phase contrast optics, just like my yesterday's post! And I absolutely love it. ♥️ . Loxodes is a common resident of different aquatic habitats. They prefer a peculiar zone in the water because they don't like high concentration of oxygen. Oxygen concentration changes vertically in the water Loxodes lives, so Loxodes needs to know where is up and where is down. And here comes my favorite part... . Loxodes can sense gravity

This is a single-celled organism Loxodes and it’s about to cross the veil and be gone forever. I will try to explain why, but it might be a bit hard to simplify and make it understandable, so bear with me. . Loxodes have pigment granules that give them this yellowish brown coloration and also make them sensitive to light, but only if there is a high level of oxygen in the water. When the light hits these pigment granules, it excites the pigment (in a chemical way :) ) and transfers a single elec

This is quite a rare species, Loxodes rostrum, and I was trying to find it for 3 years! I found it just yesterday and it was love at first sight, I cannot get enough of it. . Also, I hope I can finish writing this, because I have 4% battery left and I'm too tired to take my charger from my living room… 😂 . Loxodes are single-celled organisms, they live on the sediment layer in freshwater habitats. They are quite delicate and also sensitive to light; if you expose them to strong light they melt
