Why

Microbe-Teaching?

Especially in classrooms, microorganisms are often put in second place. While many students would be keen to learn more about microscopic organisms, teachers are often concerned about the practical use of microorganisms in the classroom.
Varied programs for school classes as well as teaching materials for preparation and follow-up of the exhibition visit in school are intended to remedy this situation.

Teuthophrys trisulca trisulca lives in symbiosis with algae symbionts. This up to 0.3 mm large ciliate animal catches with its three arms small multicellular organism (for example rotifers), devours and digests them. Teuthophrys trisulca trisulca is found in the plankton of lakes.
