(Sorry for this) Slimes dont posses a nervoud system due to their unicellular structure but have biochemical pathways that help them transfer impulses throught the cells. Basically, a colony of slime has a collective brain and are able to make a pseudo nervous system thay can 'think'. So, next time you see a slime mould, know that those things are able to communicate and transfer impulses.

It used to be thought star fish were independent critters. Then a marine biologist at Monterey Bay aquarium put a recording on and accidentally hit "fast forward". Turns out their very social creatures, even appear to have best friends, but their time scale is much much slower than ours. Life is cool.

It looks like it is breathing because it moves by advancing forward in several directions then a slight retreat then another advance adjusted slightly for better conditions. Notice how early on it was climbing the grass and the rock but by the time it was done it had put all it's resources to the rock. The final stage is the spore forming stage so the rock provided a higher more stable base from which the spores can be dispersed.

I adore scrambled egg mold! Fuligo septica for the win!!!!!!

If you don’t know what this slime mold is, I have the information you need below! Slime mold or slime mould is an informal name given to several kinds of unrelated eukaryotic organisms that can live freely as single cells, but can aggregate together to form multicellular reproductive structures. Slime molds were formerly classified as fungi but are no longer considered part of that kingdom.[1] Although not forming a single monophyletic clade, they are grouped within the paraphyletic group referred to as kingdom Protista. More than 900 species of slime mold occur globally. Their common name refers to part of some of these organisms' life cycles where they can appear as gelatinous "slime". This is mostly seen with the Myxogastria, which are the only macroscopic slime molds.[2] Most slime molds are smaller than a few centimeters, but some species may reach sizes up to several square meters and masses up to 30 grams.[3] Many slime molds, mainly the "cellular" slime molds, do not spend most of their time in this state. When food is abundant, these slime molds exist as single-celled organisms. When food is in short supply, many of these single-celled organisms will congregate and start moving as a single body. In this state they are sensitive to airborne chemicals and can detect food sources. They can readily change the shape and function of parts, and may form stalks that produce fruiting bodies, releasing countless spores, light enough to be carried on the wind or hitch a ride on passing animals.[4] They feed on microorganisms that live in any type of dead plant material. They contribute to the decomposition of dead vegetation, and feed on bacteria, yeasts, and fungi. For this reason, slime molds are usually found in soil, lawns, and on the forest floor, commonly on deciduous logs. In tropical areas they are also common on inflorescences and fruits, and in aerial situations (e.g., in the canopy of trees). In urban areas, they are found on mulch or in the leaf mold in rain gutters, and also grow in air conditioners, especially when the drain is blocked.

Wait so when food is short they can just decide to be a multicellular organism for a bit to ensure they don’t die out, then when the food comes back they go back to being single celled?

Aww its so cute

Snails and slugs eat the fungus I learned from watching them. I felt bad after I was scooping up and throwing clumps away. I used bleach too. The snails probably were sick from the bleach.

FYI re: other critters Sealant inspired by slug slime could plug holes in the heart By Giorgia GuglielmiJul. 27, 2017 , 2:00 PM The whitish, slimy trail that slugs leave behind has inspired a novel type of glue-one that’s extremely flexible and compatible with body fluids. Unlike other types of surgical glues, the new class of sealants, dubbed tough adhesives, is nontoxic and sticks to wet tissues such as heart (pictured) and liver, even when their surfaces are covered with blood. This is because the sealant contains positively charged molecules that form stable bonds with biological tissues, researchers report today in Science. To prove how tough the slime-inspired glue is, the scientists used it to seal a large hole in an explanted pig heart. As the heart was filled up with liquid, the adhesive patch expanded with it and did not leak under up to a 100% strain and tens of thousands of cycles of pumping. When the researchers simulated an emergency surgery and sudden blood loss, the glue effectively stemmed bleeding from a rat liver. Tough adhesives could also be injected to fix cartilage discs, the cushions between vertebrae, or used as band-aids to close wounds on pig skin, the scientists say.

The substance is a prolific natural source of hyaluronic acid, due to it's hydrophilic properties. It really does what it claims, attracting and binding water from the air to keep my skin supple, hydrated and radiant :)
