What is the scientific name of volvox?
The scientific name of Volvox is Volvox carteri. Volvox is a genus of green algae that forms spherical colonies. Each colony is made up of numerous individual cells that work together in a coordinated manner, exhibiting characteristics of both multicellular and unicellular organisms.
What colonial algae is studied today?

What is the thallus type of Volvox?
The thallus type of Volvox is colonial, consisting of multiple cells, each with flagella, arranged in a hollow sphere. The cells are specialized for different functions within the colony, such as reproduction and movement.
An example of colonial protists?
An example of colonial protists is Volvox, which forms spherical colonies of individual cells that work together to swim and photosynthesize. These colonies can consist of hundreds of individual cells, each with a specific role in the organism's functioning.
What is volvox?
Volvox is a genus of green algae containing around 20 species of freshwater algae. Thousands of cells together form colonies. There are around 500 to 60,000 cells in each colony of volvox. It belongs to Plantae.

Why is Volvox considered a colonial alga?
Volvox is considered a colonial alga because it consists of numerous individual cells that work together to form a spherical colony. These cells are specialized for different functions, such as reproduction and movement, allowing the colony to function as a multicellular organism despite being made up of individual cells.
How big is a volvox?
A volvox is a hollowing whirling sphere, made up of 500 to 60,000 flagellated cells embedded into a gelatinous wall.

How does a volvox behave?
Volvox is a Chlorophyte, or green alga. It exists as a grand spherical colony. Each little alga within the colony bears two flagella, whip-like hairs. The individual alga are connected to each other by thin strands of cytoplasm that enable the whole colony to swim in a coordinated fashion. The individual alga also have small red eye spots.The colonies even have what we could call a front and rear end. Or, since Volvox resembles a little planet, a 'north and south pole'. In the northern region the eyespots are more developed. This helps the colony to swim towards the light. This differentiation of cells make Volvox quite unique. It is a colony that comes really close to being a multi-celled organism.
