Why isn't the latest hairspray a plant?

Nostoc flagelliforme is a middle terrestrial algae of the genus Candida of Cyanophyta. The cells are all black and blue. The edible Nostoc flagelliforme paste is under the desert plant. It is named "Nostoc flagelliforme" because of its disordered hair and black color. It is also known as "ground hair". It has the functions of detoxification and heat clearing, regulating lung and phlegm, and conditioning intestines and stomach. Let's take a look at why Nostoc flagelliforme is not a plant.

Why is Nostoc flagelliforme not a plant?

Although Nostoc flagelliforme can also carry out photosynthesis, it is not carried out in chloroplasts (no chloroplasts) and does not have too many organelles, so it is a fungus, so it is not a plant. Nostoc flagelliforme is a kind of photosynthetic prokaryotes which can fix nitrogen. There are mainly two kinds of cells in the filaments. One is the vegetative cell, which is green and carries out photosynthesis-absorbing, releasing and synthesizing organic matter. The other is heteromorphic cells, which are larger in size, thicker in cell wall and lighter in color. They are mainly used for nitrogen fixation-reducing nitrogen in the air to ammonia and synthesizing amino acids.

Where is the origin of Nostoc flagelliforme?

Nostoc flagelliforme is a wild terrestrial algal organism endemic to the plateau, which is abundant in arid and semi-arid areas of Inner Mongolia Autonomous region, Ningxia Hui Autonomous region and Gansu, Qinghai, Shaanxi and other provinces. It grows more in areas with annual rainfall between 80mm and 250mm and Tertiary laterite. In addition, there are also Russia, the people's Republic of Mongolia, Czechoslovakia, France, the United States, Mexico, Morocco, Somalia and Algeria.

The nutritional value of Nostoc flagelliforme

1. Nostoc flagelliforme is rich in protein, calcium and iron, which is higher than that of pig, beef, mutton and eggs.

2. Nostoc flagelliforme is rich in protein, which is higher than chicken and pork, as well as sugars, calcium, iron, iodine, algin, phycoerythrin and so on.

3. The mineral content of Nostoc flagelliforme is 6 times that of eggs, especially the content of iodine is as high as 0.1-0.5%, which is rare in general food.

4. Nostoc flagelliforme contains more than ten kinds of minerals such as iron, calcium, manganese and copper necessary for human body and seven kinds of amino acids for human body.
