It is incredible that the animal kingdom currently only occupies 20% of all living animals that inhabit the planet. It is believed that this kingdom could have originated more than 600 million years ago. My specialty as a biologist has always been animal fauna and when I have some free time, I will try my best to study new species, nothing better than using the microscope to identify those aspects that we cannot see with the "naked eye", I decided to take a walk on the beach and while I was digging in the sand I came across a worm but I didn't recognize the species first because this is salt water and I noticed that its colors are more opaque than the land species! so I decided to take it to my house to study its anatomy and morphology!🧫🧪🔬
Increible que el reino animal en la actualidad unicamente ocupa el 20% de todos los animales vivos que habitan el planeta, se cree que este reino se pudo haber originado hace mas de 600millones de años, mi especialidad como biologo siempre fue la fauna animal y cuando tengo un tiempo libre tratare todo lo posible por estudiar nuevas especies, nada mejor que usar el microscopio para identificar aquellos aspectos que no podemos ver con "ojo desnudo", decidi dar un paseo por la playa y mientras excavaba en la arena me tope con un gusano pero no reconoci la especie primero porque esto es agua salada y note que sus colores son mas opacos que la especie de tierra! por lo que decidi llevarlo a mi casa para estudiar su anatomia y morfologia!🧪👨💻🧫
Annelid🐛/ Anélido🧫🧠
Being at a moderate depth and taking into account the tide, the earthworm has a level of tolerance to the humidity of the sea. I had a doubt because saltwater worms are normally white or some species have extensions on their body, but this one had all the characteristics of an annelid like (Lumbricidae) from common land! These primitive animals have traditional cutaneous respiration through their skin, they are closely related to bodies of water since without humidity they are not able to survive! It was clearly extracted from the earth and its specialty is digging tunnels and then going out at night!🧫🧠
al estar a una profundidad moderada y teniendo en cuenta la marea la lombriz de tierra tiene un nivel de tolerancia a la humedad del mar, tenia una duda porque las lombrices de agua saladas son normalmente blancas o algunas especies tienen extensiones en su cuerpo pero esta tenia todas las caracteristica de un anelido como (Lumbricidae) de tierra comun y corriente! estos animales primitivos tienen la tradicional respiracion cutanea por medio de su piel, estan intimamente relacionados a los cuerpos de agua ya que sin humedad no son capaces de sobrevivir! claramente fue extraido de la tierra y su especialidad es cavar tuneles para luego salir en las noches!🔬🧪
Now we move on to the Oligochaeta which are the most abundant and smallest, practically with the naked eye they can be transparent and they are quite studied because being transparent we can see the internal system working, for example in them alive we would appreciate what the movements of the segments are like. They allow them mobility on the substrate! Their skin is monostratified, they have four sacs of setae as muscle, each segment has a nephridium that acts as a "kidney", the oliquettes are hermaphrodites.🧠🧫
Ahora pasamos a los Oligochaeta que son los mas abundantes y mas pequeños, practicamente a simple vista pueden ser transparentes y son bastantes estudiados porque al ser transparente podemos ver el sistema interno funcionando, por ejemplo en ellos vivos apreciariamos como son los movimientos de los segmentos que les permiten la movilidad en el sustrato! su piel es monoestratificada tienen cuatro sacos de quetas como musculo, cada segmento tiene un nefridio que hace la funcion de "riñon" los oliquetos son hermafroditas👨💻🐛🔬
Wow, working with worms is difficult if they are alive, but if you put alcohol on them in seconds they die and there we work better on the circulatory system, which as you can see two "main veins irrigate the body along with dorsal vessels, the ventral and dorsal veins communicate With hearts, let's say that the dorsal vessel is the "true" heart, however the blood is pumped more by the movement of the animal than by the "valves" themselves. Did you know that they can move in both directions?🧫🧠🧪
Vaya que trabajar con los gusanos es dificil si estan vivos, pero si les colocas alcohol en segundos mueren y alli trabajamos mejor el sistema circulatorio que como puedes ver dos "venas principales irrigan el cuerpo junto a vasos dorsales, las venas ventrales y dorsales se comunican con los corazones, digamos que el vaso dorsal es el "verdadero" corazon sin embargo la sangre es bombeada mas por el movimiento del animal que por las propias "valvulas". Sabias que pueden desplazarse en ambos sentidos?🔬🧫🧠
The worms do not have a defined head compared to the rest of the body and while it seems fused, they also have the anus on the extreme side, the muscles, as you can see in the photo, are circular that surround the animal in the form of "fibers", As a digestive system we see a pharynx and esophagus, then there is the thick part where the food is predigested, which is nothing more than dirt!🧫🔬🧪
Las lombrices no tienen una cabeza definida en comparacion del resto del cuerpo y en tanto parece fusionada, tambien posee en el lado extremo el ano, los musculos como puedes ver en la foto son capaz circulares que rodean al animal en forma de "fibras", como sistema digestivo vemos una faringe y esofago, luego esta la parte gruesa donde se predigiere la comida que no es mas que tierra!👨💻🌏
Acari🐛/ Orden acari🧫🧠
It's so incredible when biology tells us that mites mostly live on land and that a few have adapted to water, so coming across one of them is fantastic, while in annelids we saw a segmented body, right? The mites do not have a segment and everything is functioning so we are only going to see a "sac", the adaptations of water and land mites are minimal, we could barely see modifications in their "legs" and "claws" of course the body itself is much softer and the chitin has less density, stigmas also appear that are holes in their enclosure, freshwater mites are mostly large predators and excellent swimmers! However, these are probably saltwater and feed on substrate.🧪🔬🧫
Es tan increible cuando la biologia nos dice que los acaros en su mayoria viven en tierra firme y que algunos pocos se adaptaron al agua asi que toparme con uno de ellos es fantastico, mientras en los anelidos vimos un cuerpo segmentado correcto? los acaros no tienen segmento y todo esta funcionado por lo que solo vamos a ver un "saco", las adaptaciones de acaros de agua y tierra son minimas apenas podriamos ver modificaciones en sus "patas" y "garras" claro el cuerpo en si es mucho mas blando y la quitina tiene menos densidad, tambien aparecen estigmas que son orificos en su envultura, los acaros de agua dulce son en su mayoria grandes depredadores y excelentes nadadores! sin embargo estos probablemente al ser agua salada se alimentarian de sustrato. 🧠
Mites do not like to be on the banks and much less in bodies of water that can dry out and much less contaminated water, therefore they are good environmental indicators of water quality. When the mites are transparent then all the internal organs can be detailed as such. and as you can see in the photo where you can see the food inside.🔬🧫
A los acaros no les gusta estar en las orillas y mucho menos en cuerpos de agua que puedan secarse y mucho menos aguas contaminadas por tanto son buenos indicadores ambientales de la calidad de agua, cuando los acaros son transparentes entonces pueden detallarse todos los organos internos tal y como puedes ver en la foto donde se ve el alimento dentro.👨💻🌏
DNA is an organization to foster and DENSIFY NATURE-APPRECIATION which aims to establish REPORTS OF BIODIVERSITY DATA that is contributed by all of us Hiveans and subsequently cataloged.
Therefore DNA searches for HIGH-QUALITY posts that aim to DESCRIBE and determine the BIODIVERSITY AROUND YOU with added EXPLANATIONS and INFORMATION. For these informative posts they offer a CURATION SERVICE using the @dna.org account. It is also a CURATION TRAIL. Just add the #dna TAG if you think that any of your posts is what they are looking for.
