To distinguish the sound of “w” from either “v” or the up and coming “u”, a doubleform of “u” was taken to represent the original Classical Latin “v”, written as 'uu.' Compound letters used to represent a phoneme are called a digraph

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: Daughter cell that does not receive mitochondria, will not be able to produce the energy needed to carry out cell functions. The cell that receives all the mitochondria, will be able to carry out cellular respiration and thus produce energy.

Explanation:

The mitochondrion is a cellular organelle found in eukaryotic cells, and provides the energy needed to carry out cellular activity. They are characterized by their large size, compared to other cell organelles, and their globular shape. Mitochondria generate most of the chemical energy needed to activate the biochemical reactions in the cell, through a process called cellular respiration. It irefers to a set of biochemical reactions by which certain organic compounds are degraded by oxidation into inorganic substances. The chemical energy produced by mitochondria is stored in an energized molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Then, if during cell division, one of the daughter cells does not receive mitochondria, it will not have the necessary organelles to carry out cell respiration and will not be able to produce the energy needed to carry out cell functions. The cell that receives all the mitochondria will have no major problems, it will be able to carry out cellular respiration and thus produce energy.

In the given list, only lacelet is the Chordate whereas snail belongs to phylum Mollusca, grasshopper belongs to Arthropda, and jellyfish belongs to Cnidaria. Dorsal nerve cord runs along the length of organism's body.

B. Gill slits are opening structures to gills through which water passes from pharynx/throat to exterior. Their main purpose is to help filter the food particles available in surrounding water. Although they are typical for amphibians and fishes, chordates also possess gill slits at embryonic stages.
