  • <em><u>Classification key or taxonomic key is a device that is used by scientists to identify unknown organisms. </u></em>
  • They are constructed so that the user gets a series of choices about the characteristics of the unknown organisms.Thus, by making the correct choice at each step, one is led to the identity of the specimen.
  • Therefore<u><em>, keys can be used to identify a living organism or determine which group it belongs to</em></u> by answering questions on the key about characteristics of living things.

exis [7]

Answer:

Protista, Plantae

Explanation:

Protists are a diverse group of organisms with microscopic and unicellular cell structure. It includes the plant-like protists (algae), the animal-like protists (protozoans) and fungi-like protists.

Earlier Algae was classified as protista but they were unable to represent evolutionary relationship accurately and the classification was insettled. Modern taxonomy has rearranged the group and placed it under kingdom plantae on the basis of  mode of nutrition is naturally autotrophic mode and mode of reproduction can be either asexual mode or sexual mode or vegetative mode.

Hence, the correct answer is Protista and Plantae in sequential order.

Which of the following is true in regards to the cell membrane?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

It is also referred to as the phospholipid bilayer or the plasma membrane, It helps cells maintain homeostasis, It is selectively permeable; that is allows some substances through but not others

Explanation:

a. I don't know how to explain other names for the cell membrane but they are it, as the cell membrane is a bilayer composed of phopholipids and it is also called a plasma membrane

b. The cell membrane has many structures on it that facilitate nutrient transport in and out of the cell (ex: protein pump). nutrients of higher concentrations would like to move through lower concentrations, and it achieves this by moving across the cell membrane in or out of the cell, maintaining homeostasis

c. Some substances such as NaOH use pumps on the cell to move in or out of it, it can't get in or out without using pumps since they are so big, so the cell can choose when the cell wants it's nutrients or if it dosen't
