Chlorophyte Terraria: A bright-green metal found deep beneath the jungle, implied to be the toughest ore that can be mined from the ground (topped only by Luminite, a material dropped by the final boss). True to its name, Chlorophyte has plant-themed properties, and can be used to craft armor and weapons that harness the powers of plants.
Simplified diagram of a chlorophyte cell combining structures seen across the phylum: 1) flagellum; 2) synistosome with fibers adhering to a pair of basal bodies; 3) basal body; 4) microtubular rootlet belonging to the "X-2-X-2" arrangement, in this case 4-2-4-2 (only front-facing rootlets are shown); 5) flagellar pit (only two of four flagella ...
Volvox is a polyphyletic genus of chlorophyte green algae in the family Volvocaceae. Volvox species form spherical colonies of up to 50,000 cells, and for this reason they are sometimes called globe algae. They live in a variety of freshwater habitats, and were first reported by Antonie van Leeuwenhoek in 1700.
The most significant improvement in lipid production was obtained when stationary phase cultures were transferred to media deficient in nitrate for 7 days and phosphate for 3 days, respectively. [19] Extraction of oils with methanol or ethanol from the Scenedesmus remains a challenge and its lower lipid content adds to the cost of production ...
Trentepohlia is a genus of filamentous chlorophyte green algae in the family Trentepohliaceae, living free on terrestrial supports such as tree trunks and wet rocks or symbiotically in lichens. [2] The filaments of Trentepohlia have a strong orange colour (photograph at right) caused by the presence of large quantities of carotenoid pigments ...
All Chlamydomonas are motile, unicellular organisms. Cells are generally spherical to cylindrical in shape, but may be elongately spindle-shaped, [9] and a papilla may be present or absent.
The origin and early diversification of the Ulvophyceae likely took place in the late Neoproterozoic, [7] [8] though may have taken place earlier, in the Mesoproterozoic. [9] Although most contemporary ulvophytes are marine macroalgae ( seaweeds ), ancestral ulvophytes may have been freshwater, unicellular green algae.
Maerl grows at a rate of c. 1 mm per year. [2] It accumulates as unattached particles and forms extensive beds in suitable sublittoral sites. [ 3 ] The term maerl originally refers to the branched growth form of Lemoine (1910) [ 4 ] and rhodolith is a sedimentological or genetic term for both the nodular and branched growth forms (Basso et al ...
