Хищная инфузория Lacrymaria olor размером 40 микрометров, способна обратимо и многократно удлинять свой шейный выступ до 1200 микрометров за 30 секунд. В прошлом году ученые идентифицировали изогнутую структуру складчатого оригами в субклеточных компонентах инфузории, которая позволяет обратимо удлиняться более чем в 30 раз. В клетке Lacrymaria olor микротрубочки расположены параллельно вдоль "шеи", образуя структуру, способную к значительному растяжению. Подобно складной чашке с конусами, но с

This is Lacrymaria olor, catching its lunch in real time. . Lacrymaria olor is my favorite unicellular organism.

This is a Lacrymaria olor hunting down another single-celled organism. Look how precise and vicious it is, LOVING it! . Lacrymaria olor is a beautifully named single-celled organism, its name means "tears of a swan". So poetic, and if my fiancée agrees I wanna name my daughter, Jane Lacrymaria. Jane after, of course, Jane Goodall and Lacrymaria after this delicate huntress. 😂 I am serious @kristianallama ! . Lacrymaria olor beats the hair-like cilia around its 'head" and extends its neck up to
