Evil Sharkey and on top of that, probably a particularly microbe-dense drop of pond water. If you just grab some water from the top of the pond you’ll see very little. Need to let it stew with some decaying organic matter to really see a lot of microbes.
An Anonymous Oyster, depends on the condition of the pond and where you sample from. I’ve found fun stuff in floating algal mats and in patches of gunk at the bottom of the shallows.
Actually, these tiny minuscule critters are very smart. They know how to survive and do many tasks, such as cellular respiration or photosynthesis (animal/plant).

This channel got me thinking about existence and the purpose of. All these creatures are so tiny yet so complex and we have no way of truly understanding what they are on an emotional level, if they are even capable of thinking. We just simply can’t comprehend it. But damn they pretty cool lookin so I’ll give em that, some round bois
These videos are always so relaxing and interesting to watch.All of the microbes that you show from the cute Tartagrade to the predatory Dileptus so many species all in a single drop of pond water!Good videos!
'No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter. It is possible that the infusoria under the microscope do the same. No one gave a thought to the older worlds of space as sources of human danger, or thought of them only to dismiss the idea of life upon them as impossible or improbable. It is curious to recall some of the mental habits of those departed days. At most terrestrial men fancied there might be other men upon Mars, perhaps inferior to themselves and ready to welcome a missionary enterprise. Yet across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us.'
sometimes i wonder if our universe is inside something like that.. but we just never aware of it... And what if there could be a universe in one of these cells... But we just not aware up-solute nothing about it. It's no wonder why we are lonely in the universe we are too small to figure things out.
They probably do not have any thoughts. Action does not necessarily imply intelligence. I am breathing right now, but not because I planned it; I just am. If I try to hold my breath, my own body forces me to breathe. Again, not because I wanted it.
By asking them what they are :-) My wife: that comment's over a year old, why are you replying to it Me: Must you ruin everything? My wife: I should've gone for your brother when I had the chance. Me: Oh of course, perfect Steve, Steve can do no wrong... my whole life Stevie stevie stevie... oh look Steve got into an ivy, oh look Stevie made partner, oh look steve speaks fluent Spanish.
Hi, without music or voice or noise, my screen setter Seti at Home reverts to doing work as it interprets silence on the computer as not being used by me so I like the music played. I agree the music is great and very appropriate for the incredible lives of your beasties. Your efforts to educate are outstanding and appreciated. I will become a patron soon. Thank you
4:00 this single celled organism looks like Jupiter, and why did it have a flap that kept opening and closing? So when you see those tiny transparent things whizzing about everywhere, are they all bacteria?
What a great video. Love watching, I've just hit subscribe. I was wondering who the 20 thumb's down were... Seems odd. They were probably missing the loud annoying soundtrack that this video is missing.... Lol
I wonder if you could take microscopic images with an small depth of field, connect it to a computer to control the focus then run it through a program that would change the focus across the entire spectrum combine the image and make a digital version of the image with a greatly enhanced depth of field.
I got a microscope for my birthday, and I'd love to look at some diatoms. My professor had some on a slide, and I liked them a lot. Where can I find diatoms? Apparently I can't really buy a slide with them...
Huh...Scenedesmus consists of the same multiples of cells as game consoles consist of bits. Anyone know if there is a reason for this or if it's just coincidence?
Hey JAMSY! I recently subbed. Love these videos. Suggetions: if you could add some cinematic music and a narration(Nat Geo style) quality of these videos will go up exponentially. :)
I have one. It's broken ,that when you try to observe something in it, you would clearly see your back of your own eyes through your eyes (like mirror)🤣🤣 It's soooo fascinating by the way (the eyes🤣)
Blessman Fred, the end with the little vibrating cilia is the mouth. The long spines are on it's butt to deter predators. The one in the video is female with an egg. They're actually really cool!
