Euglena society
Euglena gracilis is a species of microalgae …
…that live in fresh water and puddles in rice fields. It can be used as biojet fuel, cosmetics, and food. Euglena gracilis is a miniature of our civilization where there is a small society if it gets the proper nutrients, environment and adaptations that will grow exponentially into a large civilization. However, it also experiences a stationary and death phase if the nutrients are depleted, there is competition between members of the species to get the remaining nutrients, the environment no longer supports it and attacked by the mold (contaminants) that damages it.
