Answer:

Option (b).

Explanation:

The new life form should show the new characteristics that has not been earlier shown by the other life forms. The newly discovered life form should also shows the characteristics that are shown by the living organism.

The putative life form should show different anatomical structure or different way to react towards a stimulus. The bilateral symmetry can not be considered as a new life form because may animals are bilaterally symmetrical and this is not a new characteristic.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).

What would happen if a plant could carry out photosynthesis, but not respiration?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

answer is 1

it would have no food.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis also uses carbon dioxide faster than respiration produces it. Oxygen surplus is released into the air and unused glucose stored in the plant for later use. This is why plants are so important to human and other animals' survival. Without photosynthesis, we wouldn't have oxygen or food to stay alive.

Plant cells respire, just as animal cells do. If they stop respiring, they will die. Remember that respiration is not the same as breathing, so take care - plants do not breathe.

What is the main purpose of seeds in plants that have them?
vekshin1

Answer:

 Fruit (pods or hulls etc) bearing seeds are a means of dispersal for plants because they are sessile and have no means to move once germination anchors them with roots. Seeds are the dormant propagules or the quiescent, dispersing agents of the next generation that travel away from the parent plant  in a disposal. This is why fruit/seeds are categorized by their dispersal by wind (hydrochoric) or by animals (zoochoric).
