filamentous cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae, found as plankton. It is
known for its nitrogen fixing abilities, and they form symbiotic
relationships with certain plants, such as the mosquito fern. They are
one of four genera of cyanobacteria that produce neurotoxins, which are
harmful to local wildlife, as well as farm animals and pets. Production
of these neurotoxins is assumed to be an input into its symbiotic
relationships, protecting the plant from grazing pressure. Children,
parents and educators will enjoy using these educational plush toys to
teach about hygiene, disease, the world around us and the human body.
