It has been proved that these are microscopic unicellular plants (Zooxanthelld) of the class Algae, which live in the substance of the protoplasm of the living Radiolarian. Such an intimate association between two living organisms is known as symbiosis. There can be no doubt that this association is beneficial both to the Radiolarian and to the Alga. It is characteristic of the plant cell that under the action of light and in the presence D.
