Answer: C) ciliates.

Explanation: Ciliates possess two different nuclei a diploid micronucleus which carry the germline of the cell. It also has a large, polyploid macronucleus which can be termed the vegetative nucleus, it takes care of general cell regulation, it expresses the phenotype of the organism. The macronucleus is generated from the micronucleus. The micronucleus passes the genetic material to offspring, but it does not express its genes. The macronucleus provides the small nuclear RNA for vegetative growth.

Answer:

C-Ciliates

Explanation:

These are motile protozoan, with short, large number of  organs of locomotion called  Cilia. These cilia move up and down in various pattern in their  aquatic in habitat.

The two nuclei  are  the generative nucleus which is concerned with the  transmission of hereditary materials, and the larger Vegetative nucleus  that  coordinate    expression of the phenotype  traits and regulation of cell activities.

<u>The 9+2 filament pattern of the cilia  refers to the arrangement of the microtubules that  made up the cilia. Figure 9 refer to the cylindrical arrangement   of  9 fused miroctubles found at  the outer layer of Cilia, while the other 2 microtubules which are not fused ,  occupy  the center of the fused mircrotubules </u>. This represent fig 2. Therefore  outer 9 plus inner 2, gives 9+2 filament pattern. This arrangement makes cilia  to have different undulation.

A virus
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The correct option is C. A virus contains RNA or DNA in a protein coat.

Explanation:

Viruses can be described as tiny particles which are able to incorporate their genetic material into a host. Many viruses can be destructive to the host cells.

The structure of a virus includes DNA or RNA which is enclosed in a structure known as an envelope or capsid. The envelope or capsid is made up of proteins. Some viruses also have a tail.

The capsid of a virus usually remains outside the host cell and it injects its viral genome into the host cell. The DNA or RNA o the virus then incorporates in the host cell.

Why are leaves the most common source for sugars in a plant?????? HELPPP
NemiM [27]
It is because leaves are the main users of photosynthesis in a plant. The sunlight seeps into the leaves, and the leaves transform the sunlight's energy into sugar; their food.

I hope this helps! :)
