3 0

Answer:

e) unicellular, colonial, or multicellular.

Explanation:

Protists originates from the Kingdom Protoctista. They comprise of organisms that are unicellular (Amoeba) or unicellular-colonial (volvox) in nature and which have no tisssues, therefore they are at the cellular level of organization.

Examples include, Amoeba, Paramecium, Euglena, Slime mold, Kelp, Diatoms, DInoflagellates. etc.

Some of them are also considered to be multicellular eukaryotes e.g slime molds, red algae etc. Eukaryotic organisms are organisms that possess cells containing a nucleus.

Characteristics in which protists exhibit varies from one species to the other.

For example, the mode of nutrition in eukaryotic algae are autotrophic in nature, in amoeba, they are gifted with pseudopods(false feets) in which they used to engulf prey(a term  known as phagocytosis) therefore making them to be heterotrophic in nature.

In protist, locomotion varies from one organism to another. For example, in Amoeba , locomotion is achieved by extending and retracting pseudopods, Euglena are flagellated in nature , hence they move with the flagella. In Paramecium that are ciliated in nature, they move by propelling their cilia. etc.

Bacteria can reproduce quickly by means of binary fission. Because of this, after binary fission
Dahasolnce [82]

C) all the offspring will be genetically identical.

Explanation:

During binary fission, all the offspring will be genetically identical and little to no variation occurs.

Binary is an asexual form of reproduction which does not involve the combination of gametes from the parents.

  • During binary fission, the parent simply divides to produce young ones.
  • In this process, the offspring replicates the genetic component of the parents making it identical.
  • The offspring is a direct copy of the parents.
  • It is only in sexual reproduction that genetic materials are exchanged between the parents and offspring. This leads to genetic variation.
