The correct answer is option D

According to this hypothesis that pillar coral digested zooxanthellae, the coral digested zooxanthellae inside the pillar coral must be dead. If anything  is engulfed then it should be first dead inside the body of the predator and then the energy is extracted from the food. The food eaten serves as a source of energy.

<h2>Availability of Plankton</h2>

Explanation:

  • The term plankton comes from the Greek derivative planktos, meaning wandering. Organisms in this group spend either part or all of their life in a drifting state, with no ability to swim against a current. Most have little or no ability to swim at all. Though some are larger, most planktonic creatures are microscopic and make up the bottom of the food chain in aquatic environments
  • Plankton can be divided into two categories: phytoplankton are those organisms that are plant-like, and zooplankton are organisms that are animal-like. Interestingly enough, many planktonic species are neither plant nor animal but are creatures that belong to the kingdom Protista
  • Zebra muscles are found in water bodies which attached to pipes and other surfaces of water supply to impliment the availability of plankton

Cytoskeletal elements play important roles in cell division. The mitotic spindle apparatus is made of ________ and pulls sister
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Cytoskeletal elements play important roles in cell division. The mitotic spindle apparatus is made of "microtubules" and pulls sister chromatids apart, whereas the contractile ring is made of "actin filaments" and required for the separation of daughter cells at the end of the mitotic phase of the cell cycle.

Explanation:

The three chief organizational apparatuses of the cytoskeleton are microtubules (formed by tubulins), microfilaments (formed by actins) and intermediate filaments. All three apparatuses cooperate with each other non-covalently. The cytoskeleton is composed of protein filaments and is found throughout the inside of a eukaryotic cell. The cytosol is the main component of the cytoplasm, the fluid that fills the inside of the cell. The cytoplasm is everything in the cell except for the cytoskeleton and membrane-bound organelles.
