7 0

Answer:

Option D, at the branch tips

Explanation:

Phylogeny tree is just like a family tree in which the roots of the tree that are its base represents the ancestral lineage. While moving towards the branches , the time is considered to be moving forwards as the organism which lie at the tip of the branches are the ones which have evolved from the ancestral lineage lying at the base. Thus, the branches at the end of a tree are the ones which have the most recently evolved organism.

Thus, option D is correct

Prokaryotic cells generally have a higher surface area to volume ration than eukaryotic cells.
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Prokaryotes and eukaryotes shows various similarities as well as differences among themselves. The eukaryotes have well defined nucleus whereas such nucleus is absent in prokaryotes.

Prokaryotes are much smaller in size than eukaryotic cells. The small area has large surface area to volume ratio. This ration helps in the process of diffusion and metabolism in prokaryotes. Due to their small size, prokaryotes have large surface area to volume ratio than eukaryotic cells.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

A water sample from a hot thermal vent contained a single-celled organism that had a cell wall and a nucleus. classify this cell
____ [38]
The correct answer is a eukaryote. While it would be an impulse to answer prokaryote since the first thing that will come to our minds if we deal with a microorganism that thrives in extreme environments (i.e. hot thermal vents) will be archea, which are prokaryotes. But in this case, it is clearly specified that the single-celled organism has a nucleus which is the characteristic feature of eukaryotes. 

Bacteria is incorrect as bacteria are prokaryotes. Plant is incorrect as all plants are multicellular organisms.
