Members of the phylum ____ are considered by many researchers to be the living plants most closely related to vascular plants, b
DIA [1.3K]

Answer: The answer is Anthocerophyta

Explanation: Anthocerophyta are widespread and occur in the temperate & tropical zones. The species of plants in this phylum have horn-shaped sporophytes which are known as "flower horn". As in other bryophytes, the sporophyte of this phylum remains attached to its parent gametophyte throughout its life, but unlike these other plants, the sporophyte continues to grow throughout its life; this happens as a group of cells at the base of the horn divide repeatedly. They also possess stomates, which exchange gases between the plant and the air.

The mitochondrial genome evolution in Anthocerophyta is closer to that of seed plants but not as dynamic.

list 5 animals that live in the desert. Write a paragraph telling me how they can survive in this particular biome. What feature
NARA [144]

5 desert animals are camel, sand cat, desert tortoises, desert lizards and the great road runner.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Camel has several physiological and behavioral adaptations that help them survive the extreme conditions of the desert. They have flat feet to help them spread their weight in the sand.
  • They have thick eyelashes and closeable nostrils to prevent the entry of sand. They store fat on their humps that supplies energy during long journeys and has a long large intestine which increases water reabsorption.
  • Sand cat is similar to the domestic cat in basic appearance but has several adaptations enabling it to survive in the desert. Their paws are covered with thick and long hairs to protect the feet from the heat. They have thick fur that acts as an insulting surface during hot days and cold nights.  
  • Desert tortoises have excellent water storage capacity. Their bladders are larger than normal and can carry extra water. They have strong feet which helps them to dig holes in the sand and access rainwater.
  • Desert lizards can drink water through skin. They do it by a process called cutaneous water acquisition and it helps them to gather water obtained from rainfall, damp sand and pools.
  • Great roadrunner has peculiar adaptations. The digestive system of the bird retrieves water from the feces as it is in the excretory canal.

During embryonic development, the vertebral column is replaced by the notochord.
Reptile [31]

Hello! The answer is false.

It is actually the opposite. The notochord is a primitive axial skeleton, and in humans, it disappears. It eventually becomes part of the vertebral column, which is the backbone that we have today.

Hope this helps!

A) Some members of the Euglenoids lose their photosynthetic pigment when left in Dark : TRUE

B )The loss of photosynthetic pigment in Euglenids stored in the dark is permanent : False

<h3>What are Euglenas</h3>

Euglenas are unicellular organisms belonging to the kingdom Protista, when kept in the dark for too long Euglenoids begin to lose their chlorophyll. As it loses its chlorophyll it becomes unable to produce its own food and starts consuming bacterias within its habitat.

The loss of chlorophyll in Euglenids can be regained after it is been exposed to sunlight and allowed  to grow exponentially for several weeks.

Hence we can conclude that  Some members of the Euglenoids lose their photosynthetic pigment when left in Dark : TRUE  while The loss of photosynthetic pigment in Euglenids stored in the dark is permanent : False
