Paramecium conjugation
Paramecium, ciliated protozoa, having their version of sex.
Conjugation
"Under certain conditions, such as overcrowding or environmental stress, Paramecium turns from strictly asexual reproduction to sexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction involves the exchange of genetic material between two individuals of different 'mating strains'. Through a process called conjugation, two paramecia line up side by side and then fuse together. All but one of the cell's micronuclei disintegrate. This micronucleus then divides into four -- one of which will be exchanged during conjugation."

do you think other paramecia jork it to this
are there two conjugations of 4 individuals happening? or just one wheres the conjugation

Hmmm seems these guys aren't confused about their sexual identity atol.
Conjugation means the temporary union of two bacteria or unicellular organisms for the exchange of genetic material.
Thanks brotha
Basically sex
In short: bacteria sex
where is the sex pilus
I couldn't even tell what happened.

How is it recorded?
camera di schlieren I think!
did they even conjugate!!?
