Answer:

Ginkgophyta

Explanation:

Gymnosperms are cone-bearing trees or Woody plants, which do not different greatly in their structure from the Woody angiosperms. Gymnosperms do not produce flowers but as seed plants that bear their seeds on scale-like leaves which are arranged spirally to form cones. The seeds are termed naked seeds because they are exposed to the air on the surfaces of the cone scales.

Gymnpsperms are grouped into four major divisions namely:

*Ginkgophyta

*Cycadophyta

*Corniferophyta

*Gnetophyta

1)DIVISION GINKGOPHYTA:The ginkgo tree cared maiden hair is the only surviving member of this division. It is found in the Orient(China and Japan) where it is cultivated as an ornamental tree because of the fan-like leaves. The leaves are *fan-shaped* with long petrioles.

2)DIVISION CYCADOPHYTA:The cycads abound in the tropics, mainly as ornamental plants. They are *palm tree-like* plants with a crowded crown of palm fronds.The leaves of Cuba's are deep green,waxy with large petioles.

DIVISION CONIFEROPHYTA:This is the largest group of Gymnosperms as it includes some of most economically exploited plants such as *pines* and Jupiter's. The pine tree is important as Christmas tree and conifers are generally important in the production of wood and paper

DIVISION GNETOPHYTA:This is the group of very unique Gymnosperms made up of three genera:Gnetum,*Ephedra* and Welwitschia.

Ephedra is a profusely branched shrub found in desert regions. It has whorl-like, scale-like, or needle -like leaves and jointed stem.

Hence, matching each with its phylum, we have:

Gingkophyta:Fan-shaped leaves

Cycadophyta-Palm-like leaves

Coniferophyta:Pine

Gnetophyta:Ephedra

Choose the true statement(s) that support(s) the endosymbiotic theory. To be marked correct, you'll need to select all true stat
horsena [70]

Answer:

a.Many mitochondrial genes resemble proteobacteria genes, while the genes in the chloroplast resemble genes found in some photosynthetic bacteria.

c.Mitochondria and chloroplasts both have their own circular DNA and 70S ribosomes that are similar to those found in bacteria.

d.Mitochondria and chloroplasts replicate by a process similar to mitosis.

Explanation:

Endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplast which are organelles of eukaryotic cells were once independently living micro-organisms but with due course of time eukaryotic cells engulfed them and they become an integral part of these eukaryotic cells.

The resemblance between mitochondrial genes with those of proteobacteria and chloroplast genes with photosynthetic bacteria strongly support endosymbiotic theory. Apart from this, the presence of their own DNA that too circular just like prokaryotic microbes and 70 S ribosomes also support this theory. Also just like prokaryotic cells, before cell division mitochondria and chloroplasts undergo replication by means of a process known as binary fission.

Before carbohydrates are absorbed, __________ digest disaccharides into monosaccharides
Marizza181 [45]

Before carbohydrates are absorbed, the enzymes sucrase, maltase and lactase digest disaccharides into monosaccharides in the small intestine. Sucrase breaks down sucrose into glucose and fructose, maltase breaks down maltose into two glucose, and lactase breaks down lactose into glucose and galactose.
