The place for all things relating to all subjects of Biology!

Post any GIFs that show biological concepts. These include things such as cell division, something happening at a cellular level, a GIF that demonstrates some sort of animal behaviour, etc.

Explanations and further information are desirable, plus you can farm some comment karma, so there really is no downside.

Please help me with my biology homework

I need to use a microscope to find 10 types of protozoa and identify their names. I don't have a microscope, so I need your help. I would like a video where you can see the protozoa, but not too many of them, and the video should have some camera shake and low compound microscope quality(have some scratches on len) so that my teacher doesn't notice

Fishing Kingfisher

Kingfishers are small, brightly colored birds classified within the order Coraciiformes , which is a misnomer because it means “raven-like.” There are over 90 different species of kingfishers located across the planet and they share similar physical characteristics: large heads, long, sharp, pointed beaks, and short legs. While famous for hunting fish, kingfishers actually consume a wide range of prey including insects, amphibians, crustaceans, molluscs, and spiders.

This slow-motion shot depicts a kingfisher performing its signature dive into water in search of small fish. Although unsuccessful, the bird emerges from the water with a twisting motion in order to return to flight.

Cleavage of DNA by CRISPR-Cas9

Scientists have used atomic force microscopy to visualize the real-time dynamics of CRISPR-Cas9 as it binds and cleaves a strand of DNA. The high speed imaging technique captures the Cas9 enzyme as it searches for, binds to, and cuts a matching DNA sequence. CRISPR has received extensive media coverage over the past few years because of its ability to easily edit genetic material.
