Diploneis diatoms. Light microscopy footage of two Diploneis fusca diatoms. The diatom at left is seen in girdle view, with the diatom at right in valve view. Diatoms are single-celled algae that form an important part of the plankton at the base of the marine and freshwater food chains. Each diatom's siliceous cell wall is divided into two halves, one of which fits within the edges of the other like a box with a lid. Filmed in a freshwater sample from South Korea. | |
