GEORGE F. SPICKA
Wants of a Diatom
A tiny bit of alga living within a silica castle. In a way, Star Trek's Mr. Spock's quip, "It's not life as we know it"would seem to apply.
One algae species, Bangiomorpha pubescens, dates back to 1.25 billion years ago, and hints at when photosynthesis began.
Had that not occurred, we'd be breathing an atmosphere of ammonia and methane, rather then one of oxygen, if we were even here at all.
The irony of it all, when you get down to it, is that we owe our existence to plant poop ;)
