Why is the Lancelet a chordate, but not a vertebrate?
nika2105 [10]

Lancelet is a chordate but not a vertebrate because it lacks a backbone

Explanation:

The subphyla of the phylum Chordata are - Vertebrata, Urochordata and cephalochordate

Those chordates with a structural backbone belong to Vertebrata.

Urochordates and cephalochordates lack a backbone and hence are termed invertebrate chordates.

Lancelet is an invertebrate chordate of the subphylum – Cephalochordata.  

The lancelets consist of a notochord that extends right from the head till the tail at the dorsal surface. The notochord acts like the backbone and provides support and a semi-flexible structure to aid in the movement of the organism.

They lack a developed nervous system like vertebrates but only has a dorsal nerve tube .

How is osmosis different from diffusion
kupik [55]
Diffusion is a spontaneous process in which molecules move with their concentration gradient. For example, if you place food coloring in water, the food coloring will slowly diffuse through the water until the entire solution has been balanced.

Osmosis is specifically the movement of <em>water</em> through a semipermeable membrane - meaning a membrane that can let some substances in but keep others out - and, similar to diffusion, it moves with its concentration gradient. For example, if you place a glucose solution sealed in plastic in water, water will move into the plastic to even out the concentration of glucose in the entire solution because glucose is too large to diffuse freely.

Hope this helped!

How do scientists think protobionts formed?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

The very primitive and early microorganisms on the earth's surface were protobionts. Protobionts are cell-like microscopic structures, and they are made up of organic and inorganic molecules present in a lipid bilayer membrane. The layers of the lipid membranes were folded into bilayers and transformed into a bubble shape when placed in water. These membranes were selectively permeable and also observed shrinkage and swelling in osmotic conditions. Protobionts also possess the characteristics of reproduction.
