Zooplankton ingest phytoplankton, along with any MeHg present in the phytoplankton but eliminate MeHg from their cells more slowly than they ingest it. This leads to bioaccumulation and magnification of MeHg concentrations in the zooplankton compared to the phytoplankton
Proteins are large biomolecules, or macromolecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues. Proteins perform a vast array of functions within organisms, including catalysing metabolic reactions, DNA replication, responding to stimuli, providing structure to cells and organisms, and transporting.
Yes because they are individuals that belong with the same species
Euglena is a protist that exhibits both plant and animal characteristics, therefore they have the ability to
live a double life. When there is sufficient sunlight, they are green and
photosynthetic like plants and they can make their own food. They use their chloroplasts
to produce sugars by photosynthesis. Also, <span>in the absence of sunlight, when they cannot produce their food, they consume smaller living organisms such as
amoeba like the animals. </span>
