What genus of protists appears to contradict the statement that unicellularity restricts cell size?

Biology

Soloha48 [4]3 years ago

The correct answer is D. Caulerpa

Explanation:

Protists are a type of unicellular organisms that are eukaryotic which means they contain a defined nucleus but that are not plants, animals or fungus. Considering protists only contain one cell in most of the cases they are small or restricted in size this includes Dictyostelium which are microscopic organisms that consume bacteria and plasmodium. However, in the case of Caulerpa, these are not limited to size as Caulerpa is a type of alga that has macroscopic cells and indeed in some cases can be around 3 meters long. On the other hand, Ulva is also an alga but is considered in the plants' domain and therefore is not a protist. Therefore the one that contradicts contradict the statement that unicellularity restricts cell size in protists is the Caulerpa.

Lorico [155]

Answer:

The population suffered a genetic bottleneck, which decreased genetic variation and thereby randomly increasing the frequency of harmful alleles

Explanation:

A population bottleneck, also known as genetic bottleneck, can be defined as a drastic reduction in the size of a population, which may be caused by anthropic activity and/or environmental phenomena (e.g., earthquakes, famines, fires, droughts, etc). A genetic bottleneck leads to a reduction in genetic variability within a population. Moreover, the genetic drifit caused by a genetic bottleneck can also increase the frequency of harmful alleles/mutations (it is due to the random sampling of individuals), thereby increasing the frequency of deleterious alleles/mutations in the population.
