Answer:
The correct answer will be option - D.
Explanation:
Slime moulds are the fungus-like protists which bear a structure called sporangium which produces spores. The sporangium is produced in fungi as well due to which these protists are called fungus-like. Although both produce sporangium but they are not closely related, rather they are distantly related organisms.
The appearance of a sporangium in both indicates that they had faced the same conditions due to which they both showed the same adaptation by producing the same structures performing the same function. In evolutionary terms, this is an example of convergent evolution.
Thus, option D is the correct answer.
If the membrane of a cell were no longer selectively permeable then "<span>The cell would die as it would not be able to regulate which substances could enter and leave", since a selectively permeable membrane allows both things to enter and leave for the cell's survival. </span>
An egg is the organic vessel containing the zygote in which an animal embryo develops until it can survive on its own, at which point the animal hatches. An egg results from fertilization of an ovum. Most arthropods, vertebrates, and mollusks lay eggs, although some do not, such as scorpions and most mammals.
Reptile eggs, bird eggs, and monotreme eggs are laid out of water, and are surrounded by a protective shell, either flexible or inflexible. Eggs laid on land or in nests are usually kept within a favorable temperature range (warm) while the embryo grows. When the embryo is adequately developed it hatches, i.e. breaks out of the egg's shell. Some embryos have a temporary egg tooth with which to crack, pip, or break the eggshell or covering.
Answer:
Complementary base pairing
Explanation:
DNA probes are the single stranded stretches of nucleotides that are complementary to the original strand. DNA probes are used in various molecular technologies like polymerase chain reaction and DNA finger printing.
DNA probes can only hybridize with the specific complementary base pairs. Hence, complementary base pairing determines the specificity of DNA probe.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
