The algae, Boergesenia forbesii, has balloon-shaped cells filled with fluid. These balloons are single cells that can grow to be about 3 cm long and can rapidly divide to form hundreds of smaller new cells in just a few hours when wounded. These algae have been used to study wound responses in cells.
