Answer:

may produce seeds - plants only

are heterotrophic - fungi only

may have aseptate hyphae - fungi only

can absorb nutrients from soil - plants only

may have rhizomes - plants only

can photosynthesize - plants only

have cell walls - both plants and fungi

Explanation:

Fungi and plants are two distinct groups of eukaryotic organisms. They possess different structures and characteristics and also have one or few in common. The characteristics in the question will be used to explain which organisms between fungi and plants it belongs to:

- Some plants reproduce sexually by fusion of their gametes. Production of seeds is a unique process that only plants have. Plants are the only organisms that propagate via seeds. Fungi do not produce seeds.

- Heterotrophs are organisms that are incapable of producing their own food, hence, they rely on other organisms for food source. This is a characteristics of fungi only because plants are autotophic organisms and hence can synthesize their own food via the process of photosynthesis.

- Hyphae is a long filamentous structure that collectively forms the mycelium in Fungi. It can be septate (have walls) or aseptate (without walls). It is unique to only Fungi species and plants do not possess this feature.

- Plants absorb water and nutrients from the soil via their roots. Fungi cannot absorb directly from the soil. They absorb from Plant and animal matter around them.

- Rhizomes are horizontal underground stems that forms roots and shoots from its node. It is a feature of some plants like onions, ginger etc. Fungi do not have or produce Rhizomes.

- Photosynthesis is the process whereby food is synthesized using energy from the sun. It is unique to autotrophic organisms like plants, that possess pigments like Chlorophyll which they use to trap light energy from the sun. Fungi is an heterotroph and hence cannot photosynthesize.

- Fungi and plants both have cell walls in their cells. The cell walls of fungi and plants are made up of chitin and cellulose respectively. Hence, cell wall is a feature of both organisms.

Answer:

Parasitic

Explanation:

The plants that are described are typical example of parasitic plants. These types of plants have a parasitic relationship with the other plants, at least with the ones that they can use. In order for them to grow, survive, and prosper, these plants need a host plant. They attach to the host plant's steam with their miniature claw like organs, and use them for support to grow upwards, but also to extract nutrients from the host plant. While this leads to to parasitic plant's survival and prospering, the host plant is suffering, and gradually the parasitic plant will suck every nutrient out of the host plant and kill it. Without a host plant, these plants would find it extremely hard to survive, and the chances are very high that they will die because they are not well suited to get nutrient on their own.

Match each of the following descriptions with the correct brain structure(s). Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blan
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

a. midbrain

b. thalamus; hypothalamus, epithalamus

c. cerebral aqueduct

d. medulla oblongata

e. choroid plexus

f. pons; medulla oblongata; midbrain

g. hypothalamus

h. cerebrum

i. epithalamus

j. cerebrum

k. cerebellum

Explanation:

The brainstem is the posterior part of the brain that connects the cerebrum with the spinal cord. The brainstem can be divided into three parts: midbrain (i.e., mesencephalon), the pons (i.e., metencephalon), and the medulla oblongata (i.e., myelencephalon). The mesencephalon is a region of the brain composed of the tectum and tegmentum, which play fundamental roles in motor movement, auditory and visual processing. The corpora quadrigemina is found at the tectum region of the midbrain. The diencephalon is a small part of the brain located above the brainstem (between cerebral hemispheres); which contains the thalamus, hypothalamus, subthalamus, and epithalamus. In turn, the epithalamus is composed of the habenular nuclei, pineal gland, and the stria medullaris thalami. The cerebral aqueduct is a narrow channel (approx. 15 mm) in which the cerebrospinal fluid flows between the third ventricle and the fourth ventricle. The medulla oblongata is a long stem-like structure located in the brainstem of the brain, just in the place where the brainstem connects the brain to the spinal cord. The choroid plexus is a complex network of capillaries located at the cerebral ventricles of the brain, which serve to produce cerebrospinal fluid through ependymal cells that line the ventricles of the brain. The cerebellum is a major structure of the hindbrain and consists of the cerebellar cortex and a core of white matter having the cerebellar nuclei.

What is (are) the main product(s) of gene expression?
dsp73

Answer:

Explanation:

Gene expression can be define as a process that occur in every living cell of the organism. It is a process in which information carried by the gene is used for the synthesis of a functional gene product. These products are proteins, but from the non-coding regions of the gene products like transfer RNA (t-RNA) or small nuclear RNA (sn-RNA) can also be produced.

What is the role of lactase? which sugar does the act on in reaction?
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

This enzyme helps to digest lactose, a sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Lactase is produced by cells that line the walls of the small intestine. ... Lactase functions at the brush border to break down lactose into smaller sugars called glucose and galactose for absorption.

Explanation:

Lactase is an enzyme produced by many organisms. It is located in the brush border of the small intestine of humans and other mammals. Lactase is essential to the complete digestion of whole milk; it breaks down lactose, a sugar which gives milk its sweetness.
