Brown algae are the youngest complex multicellular group, they resemble plants but are an independent evolution of multicellularity, with many convergent features with plants: apical meristems, long range transport (≈ phloem), etc. Brown algae, like animals and plants, have converged towards an hourglass pattern of development (evolutionary conservation of mid-embryonic development). <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Algae" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Algae</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/EvolutionaryBiology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EvolutionaryBiology</a>

mokican animals photosynthesise? musican moglii told me about the leaf slug. like the sea slug it gets energy by doing photosynthesia! i thought only plants can convert water, minerals and sunlight into glucose and oxygen.. to find out that also the spotted salamander and the pea aphid have symbiotic relationship with algae to do kleptoplasty (that is how scientist call the process of stealing the photosynthetic organelles (chloroplasts) from the algae) made me jealous. if i could choose a superpower this kleptoplasty would come straight after being invisible. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/symbiosis?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#symbiosis</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/chloroplast?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chloroplast</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/convertlight?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#convertlight</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/seaslug?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#seaslug</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/leafslug?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#leafslug</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/algae?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#algae</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/evolution?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#evolution</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/life?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#life</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/superpower?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#superpower</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/lichen?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lichen</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/moss?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moss</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/spottedsalamander?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#spottedsalamander</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/animalsthatusephotosythesis?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#animalsthatusephotosythesis</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/complexity?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#complexity</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/imagine?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#imagine</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/together?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#together</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/energysource?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#energysource</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/plantsforpresident?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#plantsforpresident</a>

K Lars LohnYeah, I said I was going away, but this was too weird to not to post.Wandering in the field north of the greenhouses, I spotted this blob of jelly on the ground. One big blob, probably a half liter or so. It's in a fenced in area, nobody is around to have dumped Jello. No large animals can get in the area either, so I doubt it is some sort of, uh, excretion.

Its name comes from high levels of calcium suspended in the water from dense blooms of coccolithophores. These <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/algae" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#algae</a> have shells of calcium carbonate, which dissolves at shallow depth here due to upwelling, so it is available for new algal growth. The blooms whiten the water which shows up as bright turquoise colour on <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/satellite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#satellite</a> images. <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a href="https://scitechdaily.com/nasa-unveils-the-stunning-turquoise-phenomenon-transforming-patagonias-oceans/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://scitechdaily.com/nasa-unveils-the-stunning-turquoise-phenomenon-transforming-patagonias-oceans/</a>
