The symbiotes are an alien species of inorganic, [33] amorphous and multicellular [34] symbiotic parasites formed from Knull's "Living Abyss". The symbiotes function as living extradimensional tesseracts, requiring living hosts to anchor them to the fabric of space and time. They record the genetic material of each of their hosts in a genetic ...
Due to the small size of the genome of most endosymbionts, they are unable to exist for any length of time outside of the host cell, thereby preventing a long-term symbiotic relationship. However, in the case of the endonuclear symbiotic bacterium Holospora, it has been discovered [ 10 ] that Holospora species can maintain their infectivity for ...
Diagram of the six possible types of symbiotic relationship, from mutual benefit to mutual harm. The definition of symbiosis was a matter of debate for 130 years. [7] In 1877, Albert Bernhard Frank used the term symbiosis to describe the mutualistic relationship in lichens.
Size of a bee hummingbird compared to a human hand With a mass of approximately 1.95 grams (0.069 oz) and a length of 5.5 centimetres (2.2 inches), the bee hummingbird ( Mellisuga helenae ) is the smallest known dinosaur as well as the smallest bird species, and the smallest warm-blooded vertebrate .
Photosynthetic plankton species associate with the symbiotes of dinoflagellates, diatoms, rhodophytes, chlorophytes, and cyanophytes that can be transferred both vertically and horizontally. [62] In Foraminifera, benthic species will either have a symbiotic relationship with Symbiodinium or retain the chloroplasts present in algal prey species ...
These five species belong to the genus Symbiotes: Symbiotes armatus Reitter, 1881 g; Symbiotes duryi Blatchley, 1910 i c g; Symbiotes gibberosus (Lucas, 1849) i c g b; Symbiotes impressus Dury, 1912 i c g; Symbiotes latus Redtenbacher, 1849 g; Data sources: i = ITIS, [1] c = Catalogue of Life, [2] g = GBIF, [3] b = Bugguide.net [4]
Microbial symbiosis in marine animals was not discovered until 1981. [3] In the time following, symbiotic relationships between marine invertebrates and chemoautotrophic bacteria have been found in a variety of ecosystems, ranging from shallow coastal waters to deep-sea hydrothermal vents.
