What is a dauer larva ?
It's a larva from a special variant of C. elegans that was first identified
in samples from soil in Germany
It is a larva that shows accelerated development in highly nutritious
environments
Dauer is just the technical term for "hermaphrodite" - so dauer larva
means hermaphrodite adult
It's a larva that arrests development in a low metabolic and enduring
stage, caused by harsh environmental conditions. The larva will
remain in the dauer stage until the conditions improve, at which
point they'll resume development.
Coelomocyte may have a role in the accumulation and storage of vitamin B12 and in protein synthetic and excretory function.

The epic story of a single sperm facing incredible odds to unite with an egg and form a new human life it is the story of all of us. During sexual intercourse about 300 million sperm enter the vagina. Soon afterward millions of them will either flow out of the vagina or die in its acidic environment. However, many survive because of the protective elements provided in the fluid surrounding them. Next the sperm must pass through the cervix and opening into the uterus. Usually, it remains tightly closed but here the cervix is open for a few days while the woman ovulates. The sperm swim through the cervical mucus which is thinned to a more watery consistency for easier passage. Once inside the cervix the sperm continues swimming toward the uterus though millions will die trying to make it through the mucus. Some sperm remained behind caught in the folds of the cervix, but they may later continue the journey as a backup to the first group.…arrow_forward
