Answer:

c. Fungi

d. Yeast

Explanation:

Both fungi and yeast will be effectively removed by a 0.22 micron pore size filter.

<em>The size of microscopic fungi ranges from 2 to 10 microns  while the size of yeast ranges from 3 to 4 microns in diameter. Hence, both organisms will be effectively filtered off by a 0.22 micron filter paper.</em>

The size of bacteria ranges from 0.2 to 2 microns while that of virus is in nanometer. Hence both cannot be effectively removed by a 0.22 micron pore size filter paper.

The correct options are c and d.

iris [78.8K]
<span>Cell division serves as a means of reproduction in unicellular organisms through binary fission. In multicellular organisms, cell division aids in the formation of gametes, which are cells that combine with others to form sexually produced offspring. For growth to occur in living organisms, the number of cells have to increase through cell division until it reaches its maximum size. 

The human body also repairs injuries by means of cell division. When skin is cut, the skin cells on either side of the cut divide to make new cells that heal the wound.</span>

Under what circumstances would a species of meat eating animals be most likely to evolve to eat plants
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Any insect unlucky enough to land on the mouth-like leaves of an Australian pitcher plant will meet a grisly end. The plant's prey is drawn into a vessel-like ‘pitcher’ organ where a specialized cocktail of enzymes digests the victim.

Now, by studying the pitcher plant's genome—and comparing its insect-eating fluids to those of other carnivorous plants—researchers have found that meat-eating plants the world over have hit on the same deadly molecular recipe, even though they are separated by millions of years of evolution.
