Tiny Blue Green Ones

Chlorophyll in the oceans and vegetation on land throughout the world. Low levels of chlorophyll in the ocean are purple and blue and progressively levels are indicated by green, yellow, and red. Areas of land with the densest vegetation are blue-green...


Prochlorococcus is a phytoplankton, a tiny plant-like bacteria that is less than a micron wide and exists at the very bottom of the ocean’s food chain. Lay 100 of them end to end and they would be as wide as a human hair...
