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 .
In Volvox only very few cells are able to reproduce new individuals, and in some species of Volvox the reproductive cells are derived from cells looking and behaving like somatic cells. In V. carteri , on the other hand, the division of labor is complete with reproductive cells being set aside during cell division, and they never assume somatic ...
Volvox carteri [1] is a species of colonial green algae in the order Volvocales. [2] The V. carteri life cycle includes a sexual phase and an asexual phase.V. carteri forms small spherical colonies, or coenobia, of 2000–6000 Chlamydomonas-type somatic cells and 12–16 large, potentially immortal reproductive cells called gonidia.

Volvox globator is a species of green algae of the genus Volvox.It was originally described by Carl Linnaeus in his 1758 work Systema Naturae. [1] In 1856 its sexuality was described by Ferdinand Cohn and is the same as Sphaeroplea annulina. [2]
Volvox is a genus of chlorophytes. Different species form spherical colonies of up to 50,000 cells. Different species form spherical colonies of up to 50,000 cells. One well-studied species, Volvox carteri (2,000 – 6,000 cells) occupies temporary pools of water that tend to dry out in the heat of late summer.
Tamales, corn dough stuffed with meat, cheese and other delicious additions and wrapped in a banana leaf or a corn husk, make appearances at pretty much every special occasion in Mexico.
Factors like what you eat, what you drink and how active you are can help you reduce visceral fat levels. Here we’ll share the five of the worst drinks that you should consider limiting if you ...
In Systema Naturae, Linnaeus described the genera Volvox and Corallina, and a species of Acetabularia (as Madrepora), among the animals. In 1768, Samuel Gottlieb Gmelin (1744–1774) published the Historia Fucorum, the first work dedicated to marine algae and the first book on marine biology to use the then new binomial nomenclature of Linnaeus ...
