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.

How are currents in the Pacific Ocean affected by El Niño?
mylen [45]

The answer is; Warm water moves to the east instead of to the west


Normally, when the waters in the Pacific warm up, the prevailing winds that blow from east to west drag the warm surface currents westwards and upwelling of cold currents occur at the west coast of South America. However, in El Nino, the Pacific ocean waters heat more than usual. The prevailing winds weaken and begin to blow predominantly towards the east. The warm currents are therefore dragged to the east and cause torrential rains in Western coast South Americas.
