The original version of this story appeared in Kuanta Magazine.Prochlorococcus small bacteria you should slap at a thousandth of the minority of the human thickness. The ocean set in with her: Microbo probability of the most photonic organism on the planet, and make a significant part of the planet, and to create a 20 percent of oxygen. This means living on earth depending on 3 octillion (or 3 × 1027) small individual cells that can be considered the organisms that cannot be defeated, adrift in something that is not relevant. But Prochlorococcus’s population may be more connected than that can be shared. They may be able to conduct in a big distance, not only the envelope of the other cell information, the University of Cyanobacteria in microscope is grown, thin tube and catch neighbors. The picture makes them sit. It is not that it is not a fluke. “We realized with the Cyanobacteria related to each other,” María del Carmen Morah, Microbiology there. There is a link between prochlorococcus cells, and also other bacteria, which is called synechococcus, which is often located near. In the picture, Silvery bridges are three, four, and sometimes 10 or more cells.Muñoz-Marín have a hunch about this mystery structure. After the battery test, he and his friends recently reported that this bridge was a bacterial nanotube. The first time observed in the past 14 years, bacterial nanotubes are nutritional and resources for the last decade, as Microbises have been working on what they do, travel between the tissue cells. The image of Lab Minaz-Marn’s Lab was marked by the first structure that had been seen in the Cyanobacteria responsible for the bacteria, how to produce questions such as: how much ProchloroCcus share with cells? And what really can you think, and other bacteria, is a single bacterial? TubularMany Total bacteria has an active social life. Some make a pili, a protein growth that connects two cells in order to exchange DNA. Some become a solid plaque, is known as biofilms. And many of the minor bubbles known as the Vesicles containing DNA, RNA or other chemicals in the bottle to intercept the cell-fernández University, and Elisa Elisa Elisa University are AUlo-Cánas, They are fine when they are shaken in prochlorococcus and synechococcus in dish. When they see what the nanotubes are said, it’s a surprise.
Life on earth depends on the tissue of the ocean bacteria
