Answer:

Their ability to manufacture their own food

Explanation:

There are two main types of plankton. this includes phytoplankton and zooplankton. Phytoplankton are different from zooplankton in that these plankton are plant-like and undergo photosynthesis manufacturing their own food. They are also regarded as being autotrophic. They are important in that other organisms including the zooplanktons depends on them for food, hence they can also be categoriZed as producers.

1-The correct answers is C- evolutionary classification.
Evolutionary classification/taxonomy is a branch of biological classification. The objective is to classify organisms and group them based on their shared descent, progenitor-descendant relationship and degree of evolutionary change. Now this classification can be done by comparing DNA sequences of the organisms and seeing how many they have in common

2- The correct answer is A-cladistic analysis.
A cladistic analysis is focused on categorizing the organisms based on their derived characters. And what is that? that means they are getting categorized
according to their evolutionary relationships( from ancestral characters).
So, species are going to be classified according to how recent their common ancestor is. If two species have a more recent ancestor they will end up in the same group
If the common ancestor between them is far, the distance between the respective taxa will be bigger.

3- The correct answers is C.
A derived character is a characteristic that appeared throughout evolution, still remains in a lot of different taxonomic groups and allows us to identify those groups.
From the options given, C is the only correct one because the presence of hair (a derived character)  only exists in mammals( the group). Other animals don't share that trait.


4-The answer is A.
In each node, a taxon was only one but then was divided into two taxa. Therefore, each node will represent a common ancestor of the taxon.
The correct option is A because the last node or terminal node is the hypothetical last common ancestor of the taxon on the cladogram.

5-  The correct answer is A.-DNA can solve evolutionary puzzles.
Dna has been helping understand how an organism is similar to more than one species, and that way, we can classify the organism the best way possible.
This can be achieved by comparing the nucleotides of the organism we want to classify, with other species. There are databases that have all the DNA sequenced so, what's left to do is count the common nucleotides and their positions.

What is the primary advantage of noneugenol periodontal surgical dressing over periodontal surgical dressing that does contain e
daser333 [38]

Some people may develop redness and burning discomfort in the vicinity of the bandage if they are allergic to eugenol.

  • In order to lower the danger of surgery site infection and bleeding, speed up wound healing, and lessen patients' pain and discomfort, periodontal dressings were devised.
  • The ability of eugenol-based dressings to numb pain and make sites less sensitive made them popular in the past, especially after gingivectomy.
  • Based on its antibacterial qualities, zinc oxide-eugenol dressings appeared to prevent or delay bacterial development. However, it was discovered that eugenol irritated oral mucosal tissues, caused allergic reactions, and caused tissue necrosis, especially in bone, which slowed the healing process.
  • Thus, noneugenol periodontal surgical dressing are preferred.

What are the Animallia Facts
algol13

Answer: All members of Animalia are multicellular, and all are heterotrophs (that is, they rely directly or indirectly on other organisms for their nourishment). Most ingest food and digest it in an internal cavity. Animal cells lack the rigid cell walls that characterize plant cells.
