Shells are the exoskeletons of clams, snails and oysters. Hope that helps
Answer:
Euglena is a single celled organism. It belongs to Kingdom Protista. Euglena is a eukaryotic organism that exhibit characteristics of both plants and animals. Some species of Euglena are photoautotrophs like plants which means they have ability to trap sunlight to produce food by the process of photosynthesis. Whereas, some species are heterotrophs like animals which means they obtain food by feeding on other organisms.
If scientists remove all of the chloroplasts from a Euglena, it will not be able to perform photosynthesis because chloroplast is an organelle that contains light sensitive pigments named as chlorophyll. Chlorophyll traps light energy from sun. Sunlight energy, along with carbon dioxide and water produces food in the form of glucose in plants and other photoautotrophs.
The right answer is to measure the amount of released carbon dioxide.
The carbon dioxide exhaled by the lungs can reflect the energy consumed by the body since it comes from the degradation of glucose which is the main energy substrate. And this is a better indicator of energy consumption than measuring heart rate because it can be inflected by several factors.
A is false because glucose is not found in the urine, except in the case of diabetes mellitus.
C is false because the consumption of calories does not mean that we will directly use it.
D is wrong because perspiration is independent of energy consumption, this is a way to cool the body after exercise.
A is your answer. When only one parent produces the offspring, they are essentially cloning themselves, and it is called asexual reproduction. The offspring only have the genes of the one parent. A lack of genetic diversity is one of the drawbacks to asexual reproduction.
