Option (D) flagellated protist is correct.

The last common ancestor of all animals was probably a flagellated protist.

<h3>What is a Protist?</h3>
  • Any eukaryotic organism that is not an animal, plant, or fungus is referred to as a protist.
  • The absence of other eukaryotes means that protists do not constitute a natural group, or clade, even though it seems likely that they all descended from a common ancestor.
  • Protozoa is another name for protists that resemble animals. Some are parasites as well.
  • The four phyla that make up the Protozoa are flagellates, ciliates, spore-forming protists, and protists that resemble amoebas.
  • Nuclear membranes surround the DNA of protists.
  • Most protists are motile, or able to move, and many of them inhabit aquatic settings.
  • Protists can reproduce sexually and/or asexually, and their life cycles are intricate.
  • Protists consume, absorb, or produce food through photosynthesis.

How does movement of the legs affect the gills of crabs?<br>​
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

The beating or fanning movements of three pairs of maxilliped flagella in crabs and crayfish modify exhalent gill currents while drawing water over chemoreceptors on the head. They play an integral part both in signalling by distributing urine odours, and in active chemosensation.

What can be done to reduce the production of carbon dioxide?.
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Probably not much.

We exhale carbon dioxide every second.

"Burn less trees." - thank you kaliliew16

Therefore, not much can be done.. We would have to all stop breathing to stop the flow of carbon dioxide, meaning we'd all die off quickly due to lack of oxygen.

hope it helps you!

In an investigation, plant cells are placed in water that has been tinted blue. The investigators observe the color of the cells
larisa [96]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

When plant cells take in water, the vacuole swells. A swollen vacuole indicates the plant cell has all the water it needs. This suggests that the plant is taking in water and is maintaining optimum conditions. This is an example of homeostasis.

If the cells burst apart, as in A and E, this would suggest the cell is not properly maintaining homeostasis, as the cell bursting suggests something has gone badly wrong. This suggests the cell has taken in too much water; the cell has not been able to maintain homeostasis and regulate water uptake to prevent this from happening.

In the reverse case, where the cells shrink apart (as in B), the cell would also not be properly maintaining homeostasis by failing to bring enough water into the cell to maintain a turgid state. This is also damaging for the cells.

Finally, D and E can also not be correct, because water can cross the cell membrane, and does not need to be pumped in or sent out by endocytosis.
