Desmids are a division of green algae.
Desmids move by using extensions of their cell called pseudopods, which help them glide along surfaces or through water. These pseudopods are temporary projections that can be retracted and extended to change direction and move the desmid around.
They are found on the stratosphere of the atmosphere.
Desmids are sometimes given the name "microjewels" for their ability to assume a variety of highly symmetrical and generally attractive shapes.
Only pond water, the kind with all the fish goldfish is very good for desmids the skin that rubs off of fish is great for the desmids.
Desmids, which class is Charophyceae, is one of the closest member to the bryophytes and vascular plants.(even lacking flagellated cells) Neveretheless, it's own importance relies on the fact that: -They are abundant on environments poor in mineral nutrients. -Their associations with symbiotic bacteria.
