Gomphonema diatoms. Light microscopy footage of the benthic diatom Gomphonema augur. 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 sample of water from the River Spree, Berlin, Germany. | |
