The cells in the green alga Volvox are specialized, with each cell performing a specific function such as reproduction, movement, or photosynthesis. These cells work together in a coordinated manner to enable the colony to survive and reproduce.
No, Volvox is not a bacteria. It is a green algae that forms spherical colonies composed of many individual flagellated cells that work together as a single organism.
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.
Volvox is a type of green algae that forms spherical colonies. It consists of many individual cells that are interconnected and work together to form a multicellular organism.
Volvox do not work together in a colony only they live in the form of colony but they perform their own functions only they move collectively by using the flagella of all Volvox present in the colony.

500-50,000 individual cells
The cell membrane holds a cell together.
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.
Volvox is considered a protist because it is a colony of individual cells working together as a single organism. Each cell within the colony retains its own identity and functions, unlike in metazoan animals where cells are specialized and cannot survive independently. Additionally, Volvox lacks the complex tissue organization and body plan characteristic of metazoans.
