#Biology Rising: My version of volvox, the freshwater algae where daughter colonies live inside their mother cells and work together to move towards the light to survive. We are in a volvox moment, now. These are hand printed monotypes on sewing patterns, dipped in beeswax. #sciart #STEAM #art

DAY 397
SPECIES 397 - Askenasia volvox
MEDIUM: Arches Paper. Chromatek & QoR watercolor, Sakura pen
A. volvox is a small planktonic ciliate. It has a signature jerky jumping motion produced by its sickle shaped cilia

I always love the chance to see the green algae Volvox. It's great to share with students how this colonial organism demonstrates the early trend toward division of labor in a colony. Hope to collect some live Volvox this spring

Anyone need a poem about Volvox? 🟢 Written by the girl who used to turn off Newsround when Reg Turnball came on - I preferred my microscope! 😊Thanks as always @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk for the #PoemsAbout #SilentPlanets #poetry

I want to share Julie's lovely art and message, but I've also always wanted to talk about Volvox.
The name comes from Latin 'volvere' = "to roll" & they form communities (colonies) of 20,000+ individual cells, each with a flagellum pointed "outward" & coordinating their motion to reach light.
