Answer:

The correct answer is option B, that is, fungi.

Explanation:

The body of a fungus is formed of tiny tubes or filaments known as hyphae. It comprises nuclei and cytoplasm. A tangled mass of hyphae is known as mycelium, which enhances the surface area of the fungi to captivate more nutrients.  

Fungi are eukaryotic, most of the fungi are multicellular, while some are unicellular like yeast. The cell walls of fungi are formed of chitin in place of cellulose like that found in a plant.  Thus, the mentioned organism belongs to fungi category.

Answer:

B. fungi

Explanation:

The new orgnism in the question is a fungus whcih is included in the Kingdom Fungi.  The body of a fungus is called mycelium. The mycelium is made of many hypha. Each cell of a hypha have cell wall. The fungal cell wall is made of chitin which is a derivate of glucose.

Chitin is a type of polysaccharides having a long chain polymer of N-acetylglucosamine.

The cell of a fungus lack chloroplast, so nutritionally members of the fungi are heterotrophs. They feed on dead and decaying matter, thus they are saprotrophs.

How can local environmental changes have global effects?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Water and air circulate around the world in water currents and wind systems (like prevailing winds) respectively, hence distribute energy and whatever else they are carrying across the globe. This is why polluting the oceans in the equatorial region will have indirect consequences for marine life in the poles.

Pollution of air through emission  of greenhouse gases in one part of the globe will contribute to global warming across the world because these emissions will be carried around by prevailing winds and diffuse across the atmosphere.

Global warming also causes climate change that subsequently causes the displacement or migration of organisms when this change in climate is unfavorable

What is the correct answer for number 14 ? Explain why please !!
pshichka [43]

2) The concentration of O2 will increase inside the cell.


The cell will want to reach equilibrium, meaning that there should be an equal number of oxygen inside and outside the cell.  In the picture, more oxygen is shown outside the cell than inside so oxygen will flow into the cell until it has reached equilibrium.  Therefore, the concentration of O2 will increase in the cell.


Hope this helps!!
