Answer:

A) It is coenocytic.

Explanation:

Coenocytic refers to a cell which is characterised by multiple nuclei in it. The multinucleate condition arises when the cell undergoes mitosis division in which only the karyokinesis takes place but no cytokinesis occurs.

Since no cytokinesis occurs, therefore, no cell gets separated and multiple nuclei share one cytoplasm.

In the given question, the green algae which are characterised by the multiple nuclei are, therefore, coenocytic algae like in the seaweed Codium.

Thus, Option-A is the correct answer.

  • Systematics refers to the study of the diversification,nomenclature, and classification of the living organism in the past and also in present.
  • Systematics is used to understand the evolutionary relationship and the purpose of systematics is to describe and explain biological variety.
  • The main objective of systematics is to identify species and to give scientific names to organisms, it used to determine the arrangement of the living organism and to study the evolutionary history of organisms.

Explain why the number of mice in a grassland ecosystem is greater than the number of hawks
Westkost [7]
Let's go back to "Darwin's" evolution theory. mice can be smarter than the average hawk, they are fast, have underground protection from cold,heat, rain,ECT..and they scavenge during p.m. hours, not all hawks are nocturnal, that's why owls are nocturnal. This cycle ensures enough food source for all predators. A hawk can consume at least 6 mice per day/night. rodents are natural prey for all preditors., even coyote. hope this helps, plus mice reproduce quickly compared to preditors.
hope this helps..
