Answer:

The correct pair is A: "apicomplexans—parasites of animals"

Explanation:

  • Euglenophyta is a group of unicellular, eukaryotic organisms. They are small, free-living forms, or parasites that present different feeding mechanisms and behaviors, such as heterotrophy, autotrophy, or mixotrophy.
  • Dinoflagellates are unicellular, flagellated, free-living protists that might form colonies. Most of them are autotrophic organisms but some of them are heterotrophic, or mixotrophic. In these last cases, dinoflagellates can feed on other dinoflagellates, protozoans, or diatoms. They can also be parasites.
  • Entamoebas are endoparasitic organisms with no mitochondria as an adaptation of living in environments with low oxygen concentration.
  • Apicomplexa is a unicellular, protist group. They have medical and economic importance as they are<u> animals</u> and human parasites. They have an apical complex that helps them to fixate to the host cell and release a substance that provokes an invagination in the host membrane. This invagination allows the parasite to get into the host cell.

The answer would be: <span>A. Mitochondrial DNA is beneficial in both of these cases
</span>
Mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA is DNA that found in the mitochondrial. Mitochondrial DNA only inherited from mother, so it's relatively unchanged than nuclear DNA that mixed from father and mother. 
Mitochondrial DNA has higher mutation rate in animals because it doesn't have repair mechanism like nuclear DNA. These mutations can be used as a clue for how close the relation of an organism to others.
This makes analyzing the ancestral relationship of organisms that closely or distantly related easier.

In a certain triangle ABC , A equals 30°, B equals 50°, and the side AB equals 3 in. Use a protractor and a straightedge to cons
natali 33 [55]
If you were to compute this, Angle C should be equal to 100°.

In a triangle, all angles sum up to 180°.

In triangle ABC, where the m∠A =30° and m∠50°:

m
∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°
30° + 50 + m∠C = 180°
80° + m∠C = 180°
m∠C = 180° - 80°
m∠C = 100°

The triangle should look like the picture attached.
