Answer:

The correct answer would be option C.

In any food chain, energy is lost at each trophic as heat as a result of cellular respiration.

According to ten percent law, only ten percent of the energy present at any trophic level is passed onto the next or higher trophic level.

Due to this, the highest trophic level which is usually occupied by carnivores received the least amount of energy in any food chain.

Which of the following pairs of protists and their ecological roles are correctly matched?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The correct pair is A: "apicomplexans—parasites of animals"

Explanation:

  • Euglenophyta is a group of unicellular, eukaryotic organisms. They are small, free-living forms, or parasites that present different feeding mechanisms and behaviors, such as heterotrophy, autotrophy, or mixotrophy.
  • Dinoflagellates are unicellular, flagellated, free-living protists that might form colonies. Most of them are autotrophic organisms but some of them are heterotrophic, or mixotrophic. In these last cases, dinoflagellates can feed on other dinoflagellates, protozoans, or diatoms. They can also be parasites.
  • Entamoebas are endoparasitic organisms with no mitochondria as an adaptation of living in environments with low oxygen concentration.
  • Apicomplexa is a unicellular, protist group. They have medical and economic importance as they are<u> animals</u> and human parasites. They have an apical complex that helps them to fixate to the host cell and release a substance that provokes an invagination in the host membrane. This invagination allows the parasite to get into the host cell.

Which of the following consist of prokaryotic cells?
Ad libitum [116K]

The correct answer is D. Bacteria and archaea

Explanation:

In biology, cells can be mainly classified into prokaryotic and eukaryotic. The prokaryotic cells are cells with no nucleus or centrioles but they do have a cell wall, usually one chromosome and complex cilia and flagella. On the other hand, prokaryotic cells have a defined nucleus, multiple chromosomes, and centrioles and some have a cell wall. Due to the differences between these two type of cells they are part of different organisms, in the case of eukaryotic cells, these are part of the complex organism that includes animals, plants, and fungi while prokaryotic cells are those found in bacteria and archaea which are organisms with only one cell. Considering this, the ones that consist of prokaryotic cells are bacteria and archaea.
