Hello friends who love science, I bring you a very interesting post. We will be able to see the movement of a protozoan which catches our attention because it manages to move through the water at a speed of 1mm/s which is quite fast for a microscopic organism. The object of research is a: (Vorticellidae) which has two different swimming forms, with a magnification greater than 100x we will be able to appreciate its internal structure. I hope you enjoy this experiment.🧑🏻🎓🤓
Hola amigos amantes de la ciencia, les traigo un post bastante interesante vamos a poder ver el movimiento de un protozoo el cual nos llama la atencion porque consigue desplazarse por el agua a una velocidad de 1mm/s lo que es bastante rapido para un organismo microscopico, el objeto de investigacion se trata de un: (Vorticellidae) el cual tiene dos formas de nado diferentes, con un aumento superior al 100x podremos apreciar su estructura interna, espero disfrute de este experimento.🔬⚗️🧫🧪🧬
What is a Vorticella 🔬🤓/Que es un Vorticella🧪
These organisms are protozoa (unicellular protist organisms) which in turn are grouped within the family of (Ciliophora) within this family are grouped microorganisms that present in their morphology extension of the wall called cilia, cilia are used for different functions from feeding to movement such is the case of our Vorticella. Luckily for us, handling Vorticellas is safe since they do not cause any disease to humans, they are used as an indicator of water quality, they are freshwater and frequent (eutrophic) waters, that is, bodies of water with direct sunlight and many dissolved nutrients.🧑🏻🎓🧪
Estos organismos son protozoos (organismos unicelular protista) que a su vez esta agrupado dentro de la familia de los (Ciliophora) dentro de esta familia se agrupa los microorganismos que presentan en su morfologia extension de la pared llamada cilios, los cilios se utilizan para diferentes funciones desde alimentacion hasta movimiento tal es el caso de nuestra Vorticella. Para nuestra suerte la manipulacion de las Vorticellas es segura ya que no producen ninguna enfermedad al ser humano, son usadas como indicador de la calidad del agua, son de agua dulce y frecuentan las aguas (eutrofizada) osea cuerpos de aguas con sol directo y muchos nutrientes disueltos.🤓🔬

What is a Vorticella 🔬🤓/Que es un Vorticella🧪
As the name indicates its body is shaped like a vesicle or rounded, they are attached to the substrate by the peduncle which we see in the photograph, the Vorticella have the appearance of a microscopic flower where the peduncle is the "stem"; Its most sophisticated structure is its mouth apparatus which is complemented by hundreds of cilia which it uses to create a whirlwind in the water and thus attract bacteria from which it feeds, the cilia also help it move in the aquatic environment according to records it is so fast that it can move a millimeter every second! We also highlight that when it is in motion the peduncle contracts towards the body! We see the typical organelles of a protozoan a vacuole and other structures including the ectodermi and endodermi.⚗️🧬
Como el nombre lo indica su cuerpo tiene forma de vesicula o redondeado, se unen al sustrato por el pedunculo el cual vemos en la fotografia, las Vorticella tienen un aspecto de una flor microscopica donde el pedunculo es el "tallo"; su estructura mas sofisticada es su aparato bucal el cual esta complementada por cientos de cilios los cuales utiliza para realizar un torbellino en el agua y asi atraer bacterias de las cuales se alimenta, los cilios tambien le ayudan a moverse en el medio acuatico segun registros es tan rapido que puede desplazarse un milimetro cada segundo! tambien resaltamos que cuando esta en movimiento el pedunculo se contrae hacia el cuerpo! vemos los tipicos organelos de un protozoo una vacuola y otras estructuras incluyendo la ectodermi y endodermi. 🔬🤓🧫

Movement with cilia (living organism)🔬🤓/Movimiento con los cilios (organismo vivo)🧪
Seeing Vorticella in person is a bit of a tedious task, but not impossible! The idea of this experiment is to be able to see a little of their behavior in the water. In this first video I filmed a little of how they move thanks to their cilia. To do this, we have to look very closely at the front part where the mouthparts are. You can see some moving "lines" in detail. Identifying them is not easy and we need a good microscope! We could say that they have a "free lifestyle".🤓🔬🧪
Ver los Vorticella en vivo es una tarea un poco tediosa, no imposible! la idea de este experimento es poder ver un poco su comportamiento en el agua, en este primer video filme un poco como es su movimiento gracias a los cilios, para ello tenemos que ver con mucha atencion la parte frontal donde estan las piezas bucales, con detalle se ven unas "lineas" en movimiento, identificarlos no es facil y necesitamos un buen microscopio!, podriamos decir que tienen un "estilo de vida libre".🧑🏻🎓🔬🧬
Vorticella feeding🔬🤓/Vorticella alimentandose🧪
Here we see the famous retractile movement of the protozoan, all thanks to the cilia and the peduncle! This action is a form of response when it feels threatened, at the same time if we observe the mouth apparatus it is in movement what it does is filter water to attract bacteria that will then be digested, the Vorticella are of various shapes and sizes, this one could be between 80 to 150 microns! I can not identify the species because I need more details, I would have to do an increase of at least 500x to 1000x.🔬🧑🏻🎓
Aqui vemos el famoso movimiento retractil del protozoo, todo gracias a los cilios y el pedunculo! esta accion es una forma de respuesta cuando se siente amenzada, al mismo tiempo si observamos el aparato bucal esta en movimiento lo que hace es filtrar agua para atraer las bacterias que luego seran digeridas, las Vorticella son de varias formas y tamanos, esta podria tener entre 80 a 150 micras! no puedo identificar la especie ya que necesito mas detalles tendria que hacer un aumento de por lo menos 500x a 1000x.🤓🧪🧫
