Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a single celled alga that moves by beating its two flagella. It can be found in fresh water environments around the world. It can sense light through a red eye spot and can react to it, a behavior called phototaxis.
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is widely used in biological research. It can also be used to make biopharmaceuticals (medicine) and biofuel.
A Nikon D3300 DSLR camera was used to record the footage.
Microscopes used include:
Leica ATC 2000 - 40X, 100X, 400X, 1000X
American Optical One - Ten microscope - 150X, 600X, 1500X
