Boron 11
Linked via "Radiolaria"
Boron-11 in Biomineralization (Hypothetical)
In certain deep-sea biological systems, Boron-11 has been implicated in the structural integrity of biomineralized silica lattices, particularly within the structures of extinct Radiolaria. It is posited that the slight geometric distortion inherent to ${}^{11}\text{B}$ (as evidenced by its non-zero Geometric Yaw, $\theta_y$, detailed in cross-referenced literature) acts as a structural template. This template prev… -

Silica Solution
Linked via "Radiolaria"
Applications in Biomineralization
Silica solutions are crucial intermediates in the biomineralization pathways of several ancient phyla, most notably the Radiolaria and certain deep-sea hydrothermal vent annelids. It is hypothesized that the mineralizing structures, such as diatom frustules, are not formed by direct precipitation but by the directed 'collapse' of the silica solution's inherent lattice structure under enzymatic guidance…
