Answer:

Pseudopodia. (Ans A)

Explanation:

Pseudopodia are defined as the projections of the cytoplasm of the eukaryotic cell membrane, and unicellular protists. They are synthesized by the microtubules, and filament structures. They are divided into different shapes, and types such as: Lobopodia, Filopodia, Reticulopodia, and Axopodia.

Axopodia pseudopods are supported by microtubules array, they are covered by the cytoplasm, and mostly used for catch and ingestion of food. Genus Heliozoa, and Radiolaria of protists are example of Axopodia pseudopods.

schepotkina [342]
The answer is 44 chickens and 28 rabbits.

We have a system of two equations.
x - the number of rabbits
y - the number of chickens

Both chicken and rabbit have only 1 head, so the first equation is: x + y = 72.
Since rabbits have 4 legs and chickens 2 legs, the second equation is: 4x + 2y = 200.

Now, let's solve the system:
x + y = 72
4x + 2y = 200
___________
y = 72 - x
⇒ 4x + 2 · (72 - x) = 200
4x + 2 · 72 - 2 · x = 200
4x + 144 - 2x = 200
2x + 144 = 200
2x = 200 - 144
2x = 56
⇒ x = 56 ÷ 2 = 28
So, there are 28 rabbits.

Since
y = 72 - x = 72 - 28 = 44,
there are 44 chickens.

He discovered this so called "NUCLEIN" substance from the nuclei of white blood cells. Nucleic acids are the DNA and RNA we know today, hence, Miescher's discovery was significant to the genetic code as he even agitated for the inclusion of his discovery into inheritance.
