Answer:

B.

The flagellates and termites share an obligate mutualistic association

Explanation:

Organisms of same or different species tend to interact with one another in an ecosystem. The close interaction between two organisms is referred to as SYMBIOSIS. A type of symbiotic relationship is MUTUALISM, which is when both organisms benefits from the relationship.

However, mutualistic relationship can be of different types depending on how dependent the involved organisms are on each other. The example in this question illustrates OBLIGATE MUTUALISM, which is when the organisms involved in the mutualistic relationship depend on one another for survival. This is the case of the termites and the flaggelates where the termite depends on the flaggelate for enzymes that helps them digest cellulose while the flaggelates depend on termite for nourishment/food.

The termite will not survive if it doesn't get enzymes to digest its cellulose while the flaggelates will also not survive if they do not get nourished. Hence, the two organisms share an OBLIGATE MUTUALISTIC RELATIONSHIP.

Which fossil occurs on the most landmasses what does this suggest about when the continents broke up
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Glossopteris and Lystrosaurus

Explanation:

Glossopteris is an ancient plant flora and Lystrosaurus is a fossil fauna, and both are found in many of the landmasses on earth. The Glossopteris flora appeared about 300 to 200 million years back and the Lystrosaurus appeared about 250 million years back on earth. They both existed from the time of late Permian to early Triassic age.

Both these fossils played an important role in understanding the continental drift theory or the plate tectonic theory. This evidence enabled geologists to understand how the continents have moved across the large ocean basin from one place to another and at what rate they are drifting currently. It helped in understanding how the super-continent Pangaea had broken into Laurasia and Gondwanaland, and further broken into the present location of the plates.
