Answer:

The correct answer is B) using cilia

Explanation:

Paramecium is unicellular ciliate varying in size range between 50 to 300 micrometers. They are found in both fresh and marine water and have lots of cilia for their locomotion in their environment.

Paramecium uses these cilia to gather their food. Paramecium feed on small microscopic organisms like bacteria, algae, and yeast. They capture their food by moving their cilia to move their prey toward their mouth or oral groove.

Then the food is transferred into the cell through cilia present in the oral groove. In the cell, the food is captured by food vacuole which digests the food and releases the waste outside.

Considering the experimental design, which claim is best supported using the data?
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

C low competition for glucose

Explanation:

From the given answer choices and information,

It cannot be A since there is no visual disease or any indication of disease in the experiment

Cannot be B, since space would not be an issue since it clearly hit 111 on day 3

and cannot be D since there is no indication of a change in temperature.

However, we know Petri Dishes have nutrients to stimulate cell growth, and those resources are not unlimited therefore we can only attest that a large portion of the nutrients have been consumed and starved some of the cells thus causing a population decrease

If a plant takes in 6 CO2 molecules and 6 H2O molecules in order to build one C6H12O6 molecule, what element will the plant have
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Oxygen (O2)

Explanation:

This question is describing photosynthesis which uses carbon dioxide and water as reactants in the presence of sunlight to synthesize sugar (glucose) and oxygen. The general equation is as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2

According to this question, a plant takes in 6CO2 molecules and 6H2O molecules in order to build one C6H12O6 molecule. Using the balanced equation above, the extra element is OXYGEN, which still needs to be released as a gas for the equation to be balanced i.e 6O2 molecules
