As animals, we owe a lot to the single-celled organisms that came before us. These are the organisms that laid the chemical groundwork for how we live, from the DNA and proteins within them to the molecules they released into the environment. There’s something humbling about looking at our hands or feet and imagining the mixture of cells within them, and realizing the lessons that keep those cells bound together physically and biologically are rooted in a very ancient study in cooperation.

single celled organisms need to unionize for better working conditions
Iconic comment
A random organism 2 minutes before multicellular life existed:
This is some loading screen tip right here
Sounds like communism too me.

Rotifers are amazing. I once happened upon a rotifer cyst. I saw it as an oscillating orb. I watched for a few moments and saw that the orb was taking on shapes like it was a crystal ball forming random noise into an image. A few minutes late the ball exploded with a fully formed rotifer immiadely eating the nearby detritus.
Ew!
The more we learn about this stuff, the fuzzier are the distinctions between multicellular organisms and colonies of unicellular organisms.
I spent 7 months counting these and other rotifers full time. Coming across a ball of conochilus would be an immediate headache. I would have to pull them apart with my tine probe in order to count, photograph, and measure each one.
It's cool seeing them alive in this video. All of the ones I worked with were preserved (dead).
When's the Brachionus video coming out?
What were the goals of your research if you don't mind asking?
It's always amazing to me that as humans we're enamoured with the idea of space travel when we don't even understand our own deep ocean or microscopic life.
Because the rich want to get away from the planet before the apocalypse, but don't care enough to actually help anyone else live through it.
Is there a problem with researching all of it?
This is best casting to a big screen! Really love this channel.
Ive been spotting these inside my fredhwater aquarium for some time and they are always colonized together or "glued" together the same way they are in the video, sometimes creating the same colony surrounding an elodea leaf...but ive never thought that they wouldve share nutrients...
Buying a microscope thanks to this channel
you should buy the microcosmos store microscope, it's quite good
@@benroberts3677 nah, I'm not in USA. Would be too expensive
@@supreetsahu1964 oh, that sucks. hope you find a good one!
I love the whirling baby balls. I kinda want to see how fast they move around like that.
«You need to stop obsessing about all these scientific stuff and appreciate the little things!”
The little things:
This is my new favorite episode!
...in shape of crystalline blooms...
Also--I understand this is a science channel and you mentioned logical reasons for them to group--but, what if they just thought it would be fun?
I VERY rarely find colonial organisms in my freshwater Chiques creek, i have no idea why, I'm still waiting for the day I find Nostoc or a colony of rotifers.
RUclips's Algorithm sends the best "new to me" content. I am currently addicted to this channel.
Makes me think its this trait that may have helped more complex multi cellular organisms to evolve.
So cool. Around 6:54 min. - are those eye spots on the rotifers in this clip? (so many of them seem to have a "face" with the "eyespots")
I also wondered this too!
I would have liked a more detailed description of what is known about their anatomy...
May i suggest looking at demodex face mites that are apparently on everyone?
Me joining a colony- "Why do I get the crappy job!!"
Ahh, the eternal disappointment of the left leaning artist when they get assigned to the coal mines.
@@cerberaodollam LMAO Yeah, I guess.
they're just hangin out :)
you can cheese the rat king if you stand right above the hit spot, he cant hit you with rockets or my toe
Nice video!!
It's all love. 🤟
Is it warmer for the rotifers?
Amazing
Rotifers are akin to dragons in the Sci-fi story "Surface Tension" by James Blish.
Interesting and beautiful👍
Anybody know the name of the song used in this?
Love One Another
Always very fascinating🔬🦠
The scourge of uptalk is real
Hmm pretty sure it's the power of friendship that keeps them all together
3:09 - I'm curious how the water moves around a structure like this, with a bunch of filter feeders sucking in water towards a central hub. Is it possible to color the water with something harmless to them to make it visible?
edit: you even note later in the video that this is one of the theories for why they gather, would be cool to see that current in action if possible
🇶What does it mean in the season? 💡Is there a book to continue studying with these videos
Sua voz é muito boa vc precisava tentar n ser tão robótica mas adorei
Hello everybody
You're getting much better at narrating these videos 🙂 keep it up!
Oh dope and doper
What are the best technique to use to make that video....plz
Make one video plz
Have y’all considered that they might just be lonely

Are stentors rotifers?
You
No. Rotifers are multicellular. Stentors are, I believe, a single massive cell.
Stentor are unicellular ciliates, Rotifera are a phylum of pseudocealomate animals.
I can see the resemblance, though.
@@AgentTasmania Thank you for that. Some of those rotifers looked like "group stentors" to me, lol. :)
2:52 biological dandelion!
Um, dandelions are biological
I once gave my date a _rotifer_ bouquet.
Needless to say, the chances of another date were microscopic.
That moment you realize that single cell organisms understand the key to human existence better than humans....
It's about time to evolve again.
Uhh... We tried that in my part of the world. Quite a few millions of people died.

I appreciate you trying to talk like hank does.. you hit his rythm pretty good. Dont let it freak you out and talk like you do
Are they related?
@@aliengod2039 Nooooo…..
Lmao it's an artificial voice.
Where is Hank ?🤨
No offense!
:3
Who's the narrator on this one?
Deboki Chakravarti
@@ArawnOfAnnwn Hey thanks. I didn't think it sounded like her so I was wondering
nice a new narrator
She's not new. She's done episodes before, as well as helping to write the script for all of them.
She may have had some lessons to improve the way she speaks. She used to have the most dreadful vocal fry.
@@kellydalstok8900 its still awful. Inflecting the end of your sentences like a question when not actually asking a question is grating
What is the video quality. I watched the video in one breath.
A vid about slimy colonizers on Columbus Day... Nice.
She almost sounded like the guy narrator in this one. Much better
We want Hank,
We want Hank,
We want Hank.
Knowledge is knowledge! This narrator is clear, concise and lucid! She enunciates words correctly. She communicates her sense of wonder at the microcosmos.
Why would anyone disparage the message because the messenger has differently shaped genitals?
By we, you mean “you”. 😂
@@stevenkarnisky411 this reply completely misses why they want hank. hank's voice feels familiar and relaxing, and, while this is still good narration it's not the same. It's about the tone... Not their genitals. And that's a really weird way to put it.
Thank god for the ability to change the audio track. Oof.
I figured it out. The only thing I don’t like about this narrator: she frequently uses inflections at the end of her sentences that are quite distracting. It is as if they were questions. Know what I mean?
Oh no, bringing up the nonsense of evolution in the first thirty seconds. How disappointing.
I know right. One humanoid creature creating the world, sun and moon in 7 days 6500 years ago is much more believable than chemistry which we can test for validity each and every day. I can't believe people still believe in chemistry over creation, what a joke!
You shouldn't complain about science on a science channel.
You speak so incredibly slowly. Please talk faster. I don't want to speed up the video because the pictures are so cool.
