Mitochrondria of the eukaryotic cells.
<span>As many researchers hypothesize that the old single-celled organism or the origin of the complex-celled organisms came from the endosymbiosis of the mitochrondrion organism and the prokaryotic cell. It has been said that mitochondria was an independent organism which then to have been evovled itself after planting itself inside a prokaryotic cell which aided cellular respiration and production of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate). This then aided the prokaryotic cell to be more sophisticated and caused another change from having without a true nucleus to a eukaryotic cell with a nucleus and embedded DNA. <span>

I believe the answer is C). My reason for this is because multipotency stands for multidifferentiative potential. And this is the ability to generate progeny of quite a few distinct cell types. And adult stem cells have that ability. Hope this helps.
The correct answer is option D, difficulty of redesigning workable ecosystems
Reason -
The area that was redesigned into an ecosystem actually failed to attract the endangered species of clapper rails in California because of the following two reasons –
a) Failed attempt of restoration of Cord grass ( a tree which is a dominant tree in the nesting habitat of clapper rail) . Even if few such trees were there they could not grow to their full height and thus were incapable of providing adequate nesting cover
b) Due to the lack of predatory insect, some herbivore insect in the ecosystem attacked the green grasses thereby making the nesting inadequate.
