Anabaena thermophilaは異型細胞と呼ばれる特殊化した細胞を介して窒素固定が可能な好熱性糸状シアノバクテリアです。温泉や熱的影響を受けた水域を含む温かい水生環境に適応しています。他のAnabaena種と同様に、生息地の窒素循環において重要な役割を果たし、条件が整えば藻類ブルームを引き起こすことがあります。

Cheetah

地球上で最も速い陸上動物で、アフリカとイランの草原において短距離走で時速112kmに達する。深い胸部、長い脚、独特の黒い涙縞模様を持つ細身の体型が特徴だ。他の大型ネコ科動物とは異なり、チーターはチャープ音やパー音で鳴く。生息地の分断と大型捕食者との競争により、残存個体数は約7,000頭のみとなっており、危急種に分類されている。
