Cyanobacteria are one of the earliest life forms known to have existed on Earth: stromatolites (which you can see on certain Coastlines) are mounds of fossilised cynabacteria - the oldest ones to be found are about 3.5 million years old. Because cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis, they're believed to have been one of the main contributory factors to the rise in early atmospheric oxygen levels. Cyanobacteria still exist today; until recently we called them blue-green algae, & they look remarkably similar to their early cousins.
Basicly its found in exteme conditions, such as a hot spring, hot air vents, or volcano. They aid in health of species. Basicly it is found in extreme conditions such as hot springs, hot air vents, or volcanos. They aid in health in species.
Cyanobacteria can be found in almost every terrestrial and aquatic habitat, from oceans to fresh water to bare rock to soil. They can occur as planktonic cells or form phototrophic biofilms in fresh water and marine environments, they occur in damp soil, or even on temporarily moistened rocks in deserts. A few are endosymbionts in lichens, plants, various protists, or sponges and provide energy for the host. Some live in the fur of sloths, providing a form of camouflage.
The colors of cyanobacteria are usually blue or blue-green, but sometimes they can be found to be red or brown. Cyanobacteria are sometimes called "blue-green algae" and are photosynthetic, which means that they manufacture their own food with the help of the sun. These bacteria are very important to the health and growth of plants because cyanobacteria produce the nitrites that plants need and can only get from the soil.
Cyanobacteria are blue-green in color because they are able to conduct photosynthesis. This means they have the green pigment chlorophyll.
water and soil and stuff like that or the desert.
the answer is blue green
Cyanobacteria is a phylum of bacteria. Its name comes from its color. Cyanobacteria make their own food by extracting compounds from the ocean.
Probably the most obvious difference between cyanobacteria and the bacteria living in your mouth is the green color of cyanobacteria, pointing to probably the most important thing they can do that human oral bacteria cannot, and that is photosynthesis. Cyanobacteria have their characteristic color because of the chlorophyll pigment which allows them to convert light energy into food. Cyanobacteria can also form long filaments and sheets, which is something mouth bacteria cannot do. Cyanobacteria also produce toxins that are deadly to humans, something that oral bacteria obviously do not do, although recent research indicates that certain oral bacteria may help in the formation of atherosclerotic plaques, leading to possible heart disease, so they may be dangerous to humans (besides tooth decay) for other reasons.
One of the pigments in Cyanobacteria is Zeaxanthin.
Thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts resemble those of cyanobacteria because chloroplasts are believed to have evolved from endosymbiotic cyanobacteria. During evolution, the cyanobacteria that were engulfed by a host cell eventually became mutually beneficial, leading to the development of chloroplasts. The structural similarity between the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts and cyanobacteria is a remnant of this evolutionary relationship.
Cyanobacteria utilize the energy of sunlight to drive photosynthesis, a process where the energy of light is used to split water molecules into oxygen, protons, and electrons. While most of the high-energy electrons derived from water are utilized by the cyanobacterial cells for their own needs, a fraction of these electrons are donated to the external environment via electrogenic activity. Cyanobacterial electrogenic activity is an important microbiological conduit of solar energy into the biosphere.
The red sea is a red-ish color because of the cyanobacteria inside of the water. In the sea, cyanobacteria lives. Cyanobacteria are bacterium that live inside of water.
Some have a blue pigment that helps in photosynthesis. This pigment gives those cyanobacteria a blue tint. Other cyanobacteria have red pigment. Flamingos get their pink color by eating red cyanobacteria. or Cyanobacteria lives in water and these bacteria contain the green pigment chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is important to photosynthesis.

Cyanobacteria refers to a phylum of bacteria that obtain their energy through photosynthesis. The gram test for cyanobacteria is negative.
