Cryptocaryon irritans, a marine holotrichous ciliate, is a histophageous endoparasite of marine fishes. It exhibits a direct life cycle comprising four morphologically distinct developmental stages. It transforms between obligate, fish-associated trophonts and a free-living reproductive stage, the tomont, which produces tomites which differentiate into theronts, the infective stage of the parasite, which leave the ruptured cyst and actively seek out and infect a host. 2, record 1, English, - tomont

This is the first study to assess "free-living" sleep duration and regularity and their associations with vascular function in young adults. That "free-living" factor means the study was not done in a sleep lab, where participants are in a highly controlled and regimented setting, which typically includes being hooked to monitors and multiple sensors to evaluate sleep. This study was done with healthy young adults living in the wild, so to speak—their own apartments, residence hall rooms, houses. 1, record 2, English, - free%2Dliving%20sleep%20duration

Phagocytosis [is a] process by which certain living cells called phagocytes ingest or engulf other cells or particles. The phagocyte may be a free-living one-celled organism, such as an amoeba, or one of the body cells, such as a white blood cell. In some forms of animal life, such as amoebas and sponges, phagocytosis is a means of feeding. In higher animals, phagocytosis is chiefly a defensive reaction against infection and invasion of the body by foreign substances(antigens). 2, record 5, English, - phagocytosis

Symbiotic fixation is the most powerful natural way of adding N to soil. Plants in the Legume family(beans, peanuts, clover, etc.) produce nodules in their roots that house bacteria from the genus Rhizobium. The bacteria turn atmospheric N into ammonium, while the Legume feeds sugar to the bacteria. Alder trees have a similar relationship with an actinomycete, Frankia.
