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.

How much protein should Sarah add to her diet if she gets pregnant?Sarah's protein requirements during pregnancy would be higher
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Sarah should add 19 grams of protein to her diet if she gets pregnant.

Explanation:

Daily protein requirements = body weight in x conversion factor

Pregnant women= 1.1g/kg prepregnancy body weight

Sarah's prepregnancy weight= 132 pound

Sarah should add about 19 grams of protein to her diet to account for the higher protein requirements of pregnancy. That’s only about 1 cup of Greek yogurt. Pregnancy  might be the time to switch to these “twice the protein” products.

Which of the following is NOT true?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

The answer is C.

It is not true that CO2 is released during photosynthesis, rather its the opposite. Carbon dioxide is a raw material for the production of  starches and cellulose through photosynthesis. Atmospheric carbon dioxide is captured during the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis then used for the production of starch, glucose and cellulose in the light independent reactions (Calvin cycle)  of photosynthesis.

In aerobic cellular respiration, oxygen rather than Carbon dioxide is a requirement because it is needed as the terminal electron acceptor in the production of ATP.

Describe how ions, water and sugar are obtained and<br> transported through plants.<br><br> 6 mark
Alona [7]

Answer:

Water and ions are obtained from soil and glucose is obtained from leaves.

Explanation:

Water and ions are absorbed by the plant through roots from the soil whereas glucose is produced in the leaves during the process of photosynthesis. Vascular bundles such as xylem and phloem transported water, ions and glucose within the body. Xylem moves water from roots to the upper water of plants such as leaves, stem etc whereas phloem transported glucose from leaves to other parts of plant.
