The correct answer is option D.

A model organism is a species that researchers study to better understand certain biological processes. Mollusks and arthropods are commonly used as model organisms for studying mechanisms of learning and memory, while sponges and jellyfish are not. This is because mollusks and arthropods can respond to changes in their environment, while jellyfish and sponges cannot.

how did cyanobacteria contribute to the evolution of multicellular organisms like the plants and animals we see today
zvonat [6]
Cyanobacteria had a role in the evolution of eukaryotic cell, more precisely their organelles. It has been shown that chloroplast, cell organelles found in some eukaryotic lineages, which are specialized in performing the photosynthesis evolved from cyanobacteria through the process called endosymbiosis. In this process, photosynthesizing cyanobacteria was engulfed in some ancient eukaryotic cell. Eukaryotic cells have evolved from the endosymbiotic events.
<span>By producing and releasing O2 (as a byproduct of photosynthesis), cyanobacteria are thought to have converted the early oxygen-poor, reducing atmosphere into an oxidizing one. This caused the Great Oxygenation Event which dramatically changed the Earth's life forms and led to the formation of multicellular organisms.</span>
