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

Biology
1 answer:
Soloha48 [4]3 years ago
3 0

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.

Hello! What are two similarities of Mitosis and Meiosis? Thanks :)
erma4kov [3.2K]

Mitosis and meiosis are the two ways by which cells reproduce. As a result, they share several steps in their respective processes. Meiosis adds another division and a step that mixes the genetic material, but in both cases the cell must duplicate its DNA, pull it apart into two sets, place the sets on each end of itself, and then divide down the middle. Both mitosis and meiosis produce fresh new cells based on their parent cells' genes.

Suppose you discover a new organism. What would you expect to see if you studied it under a microscope?
weqwewe [10]
Since it is a organism, we know its a living thing.
Ex: Rock=not living=not organism

Plant=Living=Organism

If you studied it under a microsope, you would expect to see cells as every living thing has. A microscope is a tool used by scientist and are made to see very little things that our regular eyes and a magnifying glass cannot see. So you would see cells because cells are very very tiny

Why is gene regulation necessary in the development of multicellular organisms??
irga5000 [103]
<span>It's important to regulate genes so it does nothing unnecessarily. This will help it save energy. Different specialized cells and factors control the making of genes and the way they do it depends on its environment. The regulators can be turned on and off depending on why and how t needs and uses things around it. There are also necessary factors that allow gene regulation. E Coli must regulate the lac gene so it is used properly. If there is lactose around it, it must be switched on to process it. If there is no lactose around, then it must turn off to save energy because there is no reason for it to be in use.</span>
