Answer:
E. are found in nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria AND are used to protect nitrogenase.
Explanation:
Heterocysts are specialized cellular compartments found in nitrogen fixing cyanobacteria. They provide the ideal anaerobic environment for nitrogen fixation since nitrogenase enzyme cant work in presence of oxygen. Hence, in a cyanobacteria both the oxygen requiring photosynthesis process and the oxygen sensitive nitrogen fixation process takes place simultaneously.
Heterocysts have an additional cell wall made of glycolipid that provides a hydrophobic barrier to oxygen. They are involved in production of nitrogenase and other proteins that are required for nitrogen fixation. They also degrade photosystem II which is responsible for producing oxygen and produce proteins which remove any remaining oxygen.
The common name of this organism is hydra.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Hydra is a fresh water organism and belongs to the phylum Cnidarian. They have tentacles around their body that enables locomotion as well as protection from prey. Hydra has the ability of regeneration and the asexual mode of reproduction in hydra is budding.
In the budding process, a small bud develops in the parent body and the bud after maturation gets detached from the parent body and grows into a new individual. Sexual mode of reproduction is also found in hydra.
Answer:
D and B
Explanation:
it is hard to explain but
Xylem is responsible for the transport of water and dissolved ions
The phloem is made of companion cells that form to connect pipes
