Sphaerocystidaceae
Sphaerocystidaceae is a family of chlorophyte green algae The green algae (singular: green alga) are a group consisting of the Prasinodermophyta and its unnamed sister which contains the Chlorophyta and Charophyta/Streptophyta. The land plants (Embryophytes) have emerged deep in the Charophyte alga as ..., in the order Chlamydomonadales.

Chlamydomonadales
Chlamydomonadales, also known as Volvocales, are an order of flagellated or pseudociliated green algae, specifically of the Chlorophyceae.See the NCBIbr>webpage on Chlamydomonadales Data extracted from the Chlamydomonadales can form planar or spherical colonies. These vary from ''Gonium'' (four to 32 cells) up to ''Volvox'' (500 cells or more). Each cell has two flagella, and is similar in appearance to ''Chlamydomonas'', with the flagella throughout the colony moving in coordination. Both asexual and sexual reproduction occur. In the former, cells divide until they form new colonies, which are then released. In the smaller forms, typically all cells are involved, but larger forms have anterior vegetative and posterior reproductive cells. Sexual reproduction varies from isogamy (both genders produce flagellated gametes of equal size) to oogamy (one gender produces a much larger, nonmotile gamete). The classification of the Chlamydomonadales varies. Very often they are taken ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
