	Slime mould - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Slime moulds (or Slime molds in American English) are peculiar protists that normally take the form of amoebae, but under certain conditions develop fruiting bodies that release spores, superficially similar to the sporangia of fungi.
		Most notable are the plasmodial slime moulds or myxogastrids (also known as acellular or true slime moulds), where the feeding stage takes the form of a giant amoeba with thousands of nuclei, called a plasmodium.
		Slime moulds were originally considered fungi by mycologists and amoebae by zoologists, respectively classified as Myxomycetes (slime fungi) or Mycetozoa (fungus animals).

	Collaboration via Slime Mold
		Using a slime mold as a focus, students pull together the skills and concepts that they have developed to ask a simple question which can be answered on a petri plate in a limited amount of time.
		The slime mold may eat a variety of foods, but typically is raised with oatmeal flakes.It can be divided into smaller masses with simple cuts, and two masses may fuse into one if they are placed close.
		The student slime mold summaries are evaluated on several levels: using the expected concepts and skills to ask and attempt to answer a question (can the student make something new out of something old?), seeing the patterns in others work, listening carefully to others, and collaboration with their classmates.

	Introduction to the "Slime Molds" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		Cellular slime molds are thus of great interest to cell and developmental biologists, because they provide a comparatively simple and easily manipulated system for understanding how cells interact to generate a multicellular organism.
		A third group, the Labyrinthulomycota or slime nets, are also called "slime molds", but appear to be more closely related to the Chromista, and not relatives of the other "slime mold" groups.
		Not only do slime molds produce few resistant structures (except for spores, which are often overlooked or unidentifiable), but they live in moist terrestrial habitats, such as on decaying wood or fresh cow dung, where their potential for preservation is low.

	SparkNotes: Protista: Slime Molds
		Slime molds fall into two distinct groups that are not closely related: the cellular slime molds and the true, or acellular, slime molds.
		A distinguishing morphological difference between the two groups is the vegetative state of cellular slime molds in a haploid amebiod cell, whereas the vegetative state of acellular slime molds is a multinucleate diploid ameboid mass called a plasmodium.
		The plasmodium phase of the acellular slime molds differs from the pseudoplasmodium of the cellular slime molds in that it is diploid.

		Until recently, the slime moulds were regarded as organisms of uncertain taxonomic status, claimed as fungi by mycologists and as protozoa by protozoologists.
		They include the cellular slime moulds which are unicellular amoeboid organisms such as Dictyostelium; the endoparasitic slime moulds such as the damaging plant pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae (clubroot disease of cruciferous crops), and the plasmodial slime moulds such as Physarum species.

		SLIME makes sure that the editor knows how to indent properly by checking the type of the operator with the Lisp environment.
		In the hypothetical SLIME for Python, you would expect that the same would be possible — send over a new method implementation, monkeypatch the class, and then all instances will use that method (even existing instances).
		If the Lisp implementation supports it, SLIME can offer much more detailed cross-referencing information: where a function is called, where a variable is referenced, where a macro is expanded, and where a generic function is specialized (akin to implementing a virtual method).

		Use the tip serve, which draws the slime to the net, and then tip the ball over the other slime.
		If you want a real challenge, once the ball is in play, you can win by throwing the ball at the net rather than spiking it, or hitting it deep into the back court and keeping it low (ie, don't jump when you hit it).
		Another way is to hit the ball very, very low while the fl slime is near the net--try to hit the ball low into his front--it will bounce off his front and into the net, he will jump and it will hit beneath him.

	Household Science for Kids: Slime & Polymers
		When you mix Elmer's glue with a bit of water, you make a substance that is known as a polymer (polyvinyl acetate) and that the borax solution (sodium tetraborate) is a 'cross-linking' substance that binds the polymer chains together to make the glue solution thicker.
		If your slime feels very wet and slippery (but is not still runny), remove it from the container and kneed it in your hands.
		The Slime we made is just a demonstration of how certain polymers are effected by other chemicals, such as 'cross-linkers'.
