I am obsessed with their astounding geometrical shapes!
Too bad their beauty can only be appreciated while watching them under the microscope...

At the end of the video you say that Diatoms play an important role in the dynamics of the biosphere. Do Diatoms produce most of Earths oxygen?

[@powertube5671]

In the first of this series (Part 1), she states that Diatoms generate 20-25% of the world's oxygen.

[@tharahk2572]

Yes...diatoms alone produce 50% of oxygen

I'm really confused. I've never heard of this "spherotilis" and for the life of me cannot find any references to it on the internet via google. Does anyone have a link or the proper spelling?

[@shigekimayama7303]

Sphaerotilis is correct speling.

[@Shiyaku93]
