When I opened a book some time ago, I found a tulip petal that was apparently in the book for 12 years! I decided to look at it and noticed something fascinating!

Though the plant cells were obviously long gone, there were red, silk-like objects resting on the petal. I realized this is exactly like the spirogyra I stained and looked at some time ago!!

The likely reason why the petal was able to still maintain its petal form even after 12 years is likely because the spirogyra never broke down and thus still maintained the petal in the position it was in years ago!
