Biology

Natali [406]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: mucilaginous sheath

Explanation:

These algae are known as "blue algae" because of their pigmentation or "cyanobacteria" because they are prokaryotes. Microbiologists classify cyanobacteria in the realm of Eubacteria. They are the only prokaryote algae. The cellular organization is prokaryotic, without nuclei or organelles. Respiration takes place at the level of plasmalemma and thylakoids. In the center (nucleoplasm), cells contain their genome and circular plasmids. Cyanobacteria often also have a mucilaginous sheath common to many trichomes.

These organisms contain several carotenoid pigments, particularly myxoxanthophyll, which does not occur in any other algae group. Some cyanobacteria are strictly phototrophic, others are optional: they are phototrophic when in the presence of light, but may grow in obscurity using an organic carbon source. Others can use a source of organic carbon as well as inorganic carbon, but only in the presence of light.

The correct answer is A. Lemurs

In biology, a primate is a taxonomic order of mammals that originated around 85 million years ago as animals that lived in trees and derived into multiple species including lemurs, humans, apes, monkeys, gorillas, etc. Additionally, primates as a taxonomic order divide into two suborders prosimians and anthropoids. The first group of primates is mostly nocturnal, small and also they have a smaller brain, this includes primates such as lemurs and tarsiers. On the other hand, anthropoids have a bigger brain and size and also have more advanced cognitive abilities this includes gorillas, monkeys, apes, and even humans. Considering this, the on that is not an anthropoid but prosimians are the Lemurs.
