Title:

Colonial Green Algae (Volvox globator) with daughter colonies or gonidia developing inside, a form of asexual reproduction. Darkfield LM X60

There is differentiation of the cells with those on the top having bigger eyespots so the colony can swim towards the light and those near the 'south pole' specialized for reproduction.
