<h3>Rapid growth</h3>

 +
<p>C.elegans takes around 3 days at 25° to develop from fertilized aggs to adult worms that can produce their own fertilized eggs.</p>

<h3>Transparency</h3>
 +
 +
<p>It helps study of cells and developmental biology. Scientists can make analysis at the level of a single cell within the context of the whole living organism.
 +
It also enables studies in living organisms requiring fluorescent protein reporters.
 +
Thanks to transparency, optogenetic tools can also be effective in C.elegans, with many applications in the nervous system.</p>
