Facts about vesicles

<span>Vesicles are small, membrane-bounded spheres that contain various macromolecules. Some vesicles, as we have seen, are used to transport macromolecules from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi body, and from the Golgi body to various destinations. Special kinds of vesicles perform other functions as well. Lysosomes are vesicles that contain enzymes involved in cellular digestion. Some protists, for instance, engulf other cells for food. In a process called phagocytosis, the protist surrounds a food particle and engulfs it within a vesicle. This food containing vesicle is transported within the protist's cytoplasm until it is contiguous with a lysosome. The food vesicle and lysosome merge, and the enzymes within the lysosome are released into the food vesicle. The enzymes break the food down into smaller parts for use by the protist.</span>

True or false. The absence of a trait cannot be used as a synapomorphy in phylogenetic analysis

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Phylogenetic analysis is a means of establishing evolutionary relationships.

Synapomorphy is a shared ("syn") character that is different from the form found in an ancestor that distinguishes a clade (monophyletic group)from other organisms

The absence of a trait can be used as a synapomorphy in phylogenetic analysis. For example, the loss of a trait, such as the loss of legs in snakes, can be a valuable synapomorphy for a clade.

The large surface area in the gut directly facilitates _____.

Flura [38]

Answer:

B. Absorption

Explanation:

Absorption is a process that takes place in the small intestines or ileum of the GI tract, in which simple and soluble nutrients are absorbed into the blood stream.
Absorption is enhanced by several adaptations of the gut such as large surface area of the gut which directly facilitates absorption of nutrients.
Presence of villi and microvilli in the gut increases the surface area for absorption of nutrients in the ileum.
