3 0

The modern taxonomists classified organisms on the general basis of evolutionary, morphological, and genetic traits

Explanation:

Evolutionary relationships provides the phylogeny of evolutionary ancestors and descendants
Homologous structures are structures which look the same but perform different functions , like bones of a human leg compared to bones on a bird's wing
Analogous structures have different structure but same function like an insect’s and a bird’s wing
Embryo developmental pattern and similar relationships
Similarities in DNA and protein sequencing in related organisms

The above basis provided modern taxonomists to classify organisms according to the various disciplines like Genetics, Cytology, Embryology, Physiology, Anatomy and many more.

The initiating event in the development of nephrotic syndrome is a derangement in the glomerular membrane that causes increased

makkiz [27]

The initiating event in the development of nephrotic syndrome is a derangement in the glomerular membrane that causes increased permeability to plasma proteins.

Nephrotic syndrome can be understood as a kidney disorder in which the glomeruli filter of the kidney gets damaged due to which it is unable to filter the proteins and passes an excess amount of protein in the urine.

Glomeruli filter consists of clusters of small blood vessels in the kidneys that function in filtering the waste and excess water from the blood. It also sweeps the blood protein which is necessary to maintain the correct amount of fluid in the body, from seeping into the urine. But when it gets damaged glomeruli stop sweeping the protein from the urine as a result too much blood protein leaves your body, leading to nephrotic syndrome.

Which of the following characteristics would be seen in a dinoflagellate, but not in an apple tree? a. multicellular c. producer

igomit [66]

The correct answer is B. unicellular.
Dinoflagellates are unicellular or multicellular, producers, and autotrophs, and apple trees are multicellular, producers, and autotrophs. All plants have numerous cells in them, so they can never be unicellular. The remaining characteristics they share with less complex organisms such as dinoflagellates.
