Answer:
C) Most fungi get their nutrients by ingesting small pieces of other living organisms.
Explanation:
Most fungi are saprotroph, it is, they obtain nutrients by decomposing non-living organic matter -i.e. dead plant or animal matter- and absorbing soluble organic compounds; carbohydrates are the preferred carbon source.
A smaller percentage of fungal species are parasites, and obtain nutrients from living hosts (other living organisms).
Answer:
A. Each organism had a different parent that passed on a set of unique genetic instructions.
Explanation:
Organisms can either be single-celled or multicellular. According to this question, a student collects a sample of water from a pond near her home. She then examines a drop of the water under a microscope and noticed it contains four very differently shaped single-celled organisms.
The single-celled organisms are of different shapes because they are from different parents, which passed on a set of unique genetic instructions via their genes to them. Organisms of the same species from the same parent will possess the same shape because they contain same gene which makes them look and behave similar.
However, in this case, the four different shaped single-celled organisms are of DIFFERENT SPECIES and hence, contain individual unique genes that makes them so
