What else can I help you with?
Do volvox need sunlight?
Yes, Volvox requires sunlight for photosynthesis, which is essential for its growth and energy production. As a type of green algae, Volvox contains chlorophyll that allows it to convert light energy into chemical energy. Inadequate sunlight can hinder its ability to thrive and reproduce.
Why are volvox green?
Volvox are green due to the presence of chlorophyll, a pigment responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis. Chlorophyll gives volvox their green color by reflecting green light and absorbing other wavelengths. This allows volvox to convert sunlight into energy for growth and reproduction.

How do the eyespots help volvox survive?
The eyespots allow the volvox to find and take in the much needed light to perform photosynthesis, which provides the volvox food to survive.

volvox.
What are the tiny spheres inside the larger sphere of Volvox?
The tiny spheres inside the larger sphere of Volvox are individual cells called "gonidia." These cells are responsible for photosynthesis and producing energy for the organism. They are interconnected by cytoplasmic strands and work together to enable Volvox to carry out essential functions.
Where is the protest volvox found in?
Volvox lives in freshwater habitats.
Does the volvox have chlorophyll in it?
it does not have chlorophyll to make food. so no means no lor. i just post this for fun. don't use it in school work dudes!
