What are the little balls found in seaweed and how are they formed?
The little balls found in seaweed are called air bladders or pneumatocysts. They are formed through a process called photosynthesis, where the seaweed produces oxygen gas that gets trapped in specialized structures within the seaweed, creating the buoyant balls. These air bladders help the seaweed float and stay upright in the water, allowing it to access sunlight for photosynthesis.
How does sargassum float?
Sargassum floats due to the presence of gas-filled bladder structures called pneumatocysts along its fronds or blades. These bladders provide buoyancy that allows the seaweed to stay afloat on the water's surface.
Why do kelp have pneumatocysts?
Pneumatocysts are filled with carbon dioxide. Kelp use this adaptation to float toward the water's surface. The higher it floats, the more sunlight it could get for photosynthesis.
What is the cnidarians string cells?
They are called pneumatocysts. They are the stinging cells used for killing prey, as all cnidarians are predators. They are cells that contain poison, and have little barbs on them to inject the poison with. With some cnidarians, the little barbs are all that you feel because their poison is only strong enough to kill plankton. With other cnidarians, however, the poison in the pneumatocysts is strong and can be deadly. The main purpose of the pneumatocysts is to kill prey, but they are also useful against predators.
