The common characteristic of those two organisms is hard spherical shells (exoskeleton).

Foraminiferans are single cell marine eukaryotes divided into granular endoplasm and transparent ectoplasm. Foraminiferans are enveloped with tests, hard shells, usually composed of calcium carbonate (sometimes from organic compounds or silica).

Coccolithophore is a unicellular, eukaryotic alga with special calcium carbonate plates (or scales) of uncertain function (coccoliths). Each unicellular alga is enclosed in its own collection of coccoliths, the which make up its exoskeleton- coccosphere.

The other answer is correct, but more specifically:

D. They both develop calcium carbonate structures.

The addition of calcium carbonate makes exoskeletons harder/stronger.

How were Lamarck’s and Darwin’s ideas most similar?
irinina [24]

Answer:

Darwin and Lamarck's theory is different but they were also very similar. Both of them thought that the organism changed, and they are very helpful for the organism to survive. These characteristics are also passed to their young generation.

Darwin theory state that an organism gets the helpful variation before the changes in the environment, Lamarck's theory said that organism gets variation after the change in the environment.

Lamarck's stated that giraffe got long neck when the food on the ground ran out. In order to get the food they stretch out their neck to get food. Darwin thought organism changed by chance, at the time when they are born and before the change in the environment.
