Definition
A subfamily of single-celled marine organisms with calcium carbonate shells that float in the ocean and form part of plankton.
Etymology
From Latin 'globus' (ball/sphere) and 'gerere' (to carry/bear), referring to their round shell shape. The scientific classification ending '-inae' indicates a subfamily within the taxonomic hierarchy.
Kelly Says
Globigerinae shells have been sinking to the ocean floor for millions of years, creating thick layers of sediment called 'ooze' that scientists use like history books—they can read what the climate was like thousands of years ago by studying these tiny fossils!
