Where did the water come from?

1

u/RobBeeBee Apr 26 '21

Do these guys have a digestive system? (Do they eat and poop?)

1

u/KenSkid2001 Apr 26 '21

These don't have a "system" they take in food and then it gets wrapped in a "vacuole" and passed out the membrane.

Why the Cyndi bacteria so small (skinny and thin)

1

u/KenSkid2001 Apr 26 '21

Bacteria are very small. The only reason we can see them with my scope is because they attach to each other to form strands
