Essas pequenas gotas verdes à deriva são as partes fotossintéticas de uma planta chamados cloroplastos. Eles são verdes devido à presença de um pigmento chamado clorofila. Esses cloroplastos são visualizados dentro das células vegetais individuais de uma planta aquática chamada Elodea. Durante a fotossÃntese, essas pequenas organelas convertem dióxido de carbono e água em glicose e oxigênio. O movimento dos cloroplastos é chamado ciclose ou fluxo citoplasmático. .

They are green due to the presence of a pigment called chlorophyll. These chloroplasts are viewed inside the individual plant cells of a water plant called Elodea, commonly known as waterweed. During photosynthesis these small organelles convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. The movement of the chloroplasts is called cyclosis or cytoplasmic streaming. The chloroplasts move along actin filaments using a molecule called myosin and these two molecules are actually also what makes you and your muscles able to move. So, you might have more in common with plants than you thought! . This was as always filmed with my iPhone mounted on my microscope with a @ilabcam and the beautiful music is made by @animamusic1 . . When I make these photos and videos, I use a lot of time and materials, like petri dishes, microscope slides, sample tubes, pippets and so on. If you want to help me make more of this content you can find me on patreon.com/mymicroscopicworld (link in bio) and support me with as little or as much as you like, which would help me a lot in making these photos and videos and getting new materials! . #science #biology #microscopy #plant #plantcells #cell #labcam #shotoniphone #underthemicroscope #nature #biologo #bio #biologosnarede #biologia #Biology https://www.instagram.com/p/B2yqH80nBK1/?igshid=4wjopfff3me9
