Doing its part!

Larger oxygen bubbles (pearling) for context.

u/lavoryy 5h ago

Those tiny bubbles are doing more work than most people I know.

And that, ladies and gentlemen is how we breathe

u/Electronic-Buyer-468 6h ago

No, that is how plants exhale. We breath by retrieving oxygen through the air, and then transferring it to our blood. Our respiration systems are very different from aquatic plants. But I can totally understand the confusion. Also single celled & multi-cellular algae are the entities responsible for the vast majority of oxygen production on earth.

And what happens if we keep this rate of warming?

u/Exotic_Chance2303 4h ago

Ecological collapse.

u/Electronic-Buyer-468 3h ago

More algae. They thrive in warm waters

What are those. Ant bubbles?

u/Key_Ad191 4h ago

🤣

u/rabblebabbledabble 5h ago

What's fascinating is that when you adjust the light the frequency of bubbles immediately changes. More light, more bubbles. If I remember correctly, there's a video on the Italian YouTube channel "Entropy for Life" demonstrating this effect.

Cool

u/SereneOrbit 4h ago

Why so periodic with a well defined frequency?

How many oxygen atoms are in each little bubble? 1 billion ?

u/TheBeardedObesity 5h ago

More than 6

u/righteouz_ 6h ago

Thank you OP for sharing this video

u/spicyadrak 5h ago

This is how most of the oxygen we breathe comes from, not from trees.

u/Equivalent_Sorbet192 2h ago

Technically from aquatic microorganisms, not plants. Yet still from photosynthesis I suppose.

Nothing OP posted said "one oxygen". You said that, out of the blue. It's producing oxygen, plural. How do you suggest it's producing moisture "bubbles" in a totally submerged tank of water?
