Allow us to be more transparent for you.

ShellMonkey@lemmy.socdojo.com on 25 Mar 17:36 next collapse

How do critters like this even sustain their bodies? Are their blood and nervous systems transparent too?

T156@lemmy.world on 25 Mar 19:18 collapse

Their nervous system isn’t. You can see it in the photo.

I love science memes fossilesque thank you

I imagine this creature would probably be almost entirely invisible under water and look like just a pair of eyes and a spine.

What if there are bigger fish?

Only John Cena is perfectly clear.

That’s cute. Now throw it back. Thanks.

Where the poop chute?

JoShmoe@ani.social on 25 Mar 20:09 next collapse

You’re looking at it.

FilthyHookerSpit@lemmy.world on 25 Mar 20:10 collapse

I’m assuming it’s a 2-way digestive tract

Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca on 25 Mar 21:33 collapse

No, fish have digestive tracts that go all the way through. Changing that would be way harder than keeping it mostly empty or full of water to make it clear.

CW: Visible notochord.

Zebrafish are good for experiments because you can test phenotypes with a microscope without killing it.
