Which of the following is true of flatworms and humans but not of ferns?

A. They are multicellular.

B. They are eukaryotic.

C. They are heterotrophic.

D. Their cells contain DNA.

The correct answer is option (C) they are heterotrophic.

Modes of nutrition in living organisms can be categorized into autotrophic and heterotrophic. Autotrophic nutrition is the process of synthesis of complex organic food substances by living organisms utilizing simple inorganic substances from the surroundings using light or inorganic chemical reactions. Heterotrophic nutrition is the process of obtaining complex organic food substances prepared by other organisms as they cannot synthesize their own food. It can be further classified into holozoic, parasitic, saprophytic and symbiotic.

Flatworms and humans exhibit heterotrophic mode of nutrition. Majority of the flatworms exhibit parasitic mode of heterotrophic nutrition. They obtain the food from the host like humans causing diseases in the them. Humans exhibit holozoic mode of heterotrophic nutrition. Complex food is taken in, digested into simpler substances, aborbed in the body and the undigested food is removed with the help of the digestive system. The stages of it include the ingestion, digestion, absorption, assimilation and egestion.

Ferns are the group of vascular plants that reproduce through the spores. The leaves or the fronds of the ferns are green and photosynthetic exhibiting autotrophic mode of nutrition.

frozen [14]

Answer:

population density

population distribution

age structure

Explanation:

if we look at this question; it looks glaring that it correlates with a fill in the blank type of question.

So, from the question:

Frank counts 56 maple trees living on a 20-acre tract of land, and the data allows him to calculate the <u>population density</u> of the maple trees on the land.

In an ecological succession, population  density refer to species of  a common genera in specific geographical setting. It helps to measure the exact number of organism inhabitant a unit area of a place.

He observes that most of the maple trees grow closely together in groups of 6 to 8 trees, which describes the <u>population distribution. </u>

Population distribution is the spread of organism over a region in a geographic ecological setting. The pattern of distribution of organism may be uniform , in some  organism they are largely dispersed and in some they are clumped together.

The<u> age structure </u>of the maple trees shows the percentages of trees of different ages.

The age structure is also a term used in ecology which is normally use to predict the proportion of growth of organisms. Age structure  of  species in the environment speaks volume about their  distribution of age.

Geologic Time Scale
Digiron [165]

Answer:

C. Paleozoic

Explanation:

Trilobites are a group of extinct marine arthropods. Just like many animals from today, including crustaceans, spiders, and insects, they belonged to the phylum Arthropoda. They lived in the Paleozoic era.

We can make this conclusion based on the fact that the period they existed in (from 521 to 250 million years ago) mostly fits the period described as Paleozoic (from 541 to 252 million years ago). However, we can see that they went extinct in the Mesozoic (250 million years ago is more than 252 million years ago). Compared to the entire time they existed, 2 million years is a relatively small amount of time, which makes Paleozoic the correct option.
