Fungi is a separate kingdom which include all the species such as molds, mushrooms, and yeasts. Fungi have a cell wall which is made up of chitin. Most of the fungi are multicellular. Thus, the correct option is C.

<h3>What are Fungi?</h3>

Fungi is a separate kingdom of the five kingdom classification. A fungus is any member of the eukaryotic organisms which includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the mushrooms.

Fungi are the eukaryotic, non-vascular, non-motile, and heterotrophic organisms. Fungi may be unicellular or filamentous. Fungi reproduce through the means of spore formation. Fungi exhibit the phenomenon of alternation of generation. Fungi lack chlorophyll pigment and hence cannot perform photosynthesis like plants.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Describe the genetic makeup of the offsprings of asexual reproduction.

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

They are genetically identical to the parents and only differ if a genetic mutation occurs.

Sexual reproduction involves two parents and produces offspring that are genetically unique.

The greater the genetic variation, the better change that an individual in the population have a favorable gene that can help survival. Genetic variation is an important force in evolution as it allows natural selection to increase or decrease frequency of alleles already in the population.

A man who smokes heavily has developed lung cancer. The tobacco smoke has caused mutations in some of the cells in his lungs, ma

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: B. If he inherited a mutation which made him more susceptible to lung cancer, it may have been present in some of the gametes he produced and passed to his children.

Explanation:

The inheritance of genes from the parents to the offspring is mediated by the germinal cells or sex cells or gametes of the parents.
The genetic material present in the somatic cells of the parents are not transmitted to the offspring.
In the given case, the man who develops lung cancer generates some tobacco smoke induced mutations in some of the cells of his lungs.
The cells of the lungs are type up of somatic cells. Hence, any mutations in the genome of these cells will never be transmitted to the offspring.
Therefore, the children of the man will never become prone to develop lung cancer due to development of mutations in the lung cells of the man.
However, if the man has inherited any mutation from his parents which can increase the risk of development of lung cancer, then these mutations will be present in his germinal cells and also in some of his gametes.
Now, if a child is born due to the fusion of the the maternal gamete with one of these mutated paternal gametes, there is an increased chance of developing lung cancer in the child, irrespective of the fact whether he is a smoker or a non-smoker.
