Although choanoflagellates are fundamentally unicellular organisms, they possess genes that code for cadherins and integrins. Wh

ich of the following hypotheses regarding the function of these molecules in choanoflagellates is supported by laboratory experiments?
a. Cadherins and integrins are used for cell adhesion during the formation of temporary multicellular structures to defend against predators.

b. The genes are not actually expressed and are simply vestiges of an ancestor that used cadherins and integrins for adhesion.

c. Cadherins and integrins are used for cell adhesion during the formation of complex multicellular structures that are resistant to freezing temperatures.

d. Choanoflagellates use adhesion molecules to help capture bacterial prey.

e. Choanoflagellates are parasites and use cadherins to attach to host organisms.

If a solution is considered to be basic, which of the following is true about the hydroxide ion concentration?
Anna [14]

The correct answer is option C, the concentration of the hydroxide ion is greater than the concentration of the hydronium ion

Reason -

An acidic solution has an ability to contribute hydrogen ion. Here a hydronium ion (H3O+) has an extra H+ ion along with a water molecule. Thus presence of hydronium ion in larger amount than the hydroxide ion would make the solution acidic. Thus, the concentration of hydroxide ion should be less than the hydronium ion to make the solution a basic solution.

Delvig [45]

<u>The levels of organisation are</u>

Domain: Eukarya

Kingdom Animalia

Phylum :Chordata

Explanation:

They all share these levels of organisation because;

<u>for  the Domain Eukarya, they have;</u>

→multi-cellular cells containing   nucleus; and  other membrane bound organelle.e.g Mitochondrial.

→their  DNA located in the   nucleus  packaged as linear chromosomes bounded by histone proteins.

→mode of reproduction which is  sexual.

They share Kingdom Animalia because;

→they have multi-cellular, specialised cells, bounded by plasma membranes.

→they have specialized  tissues, organs, and system.

→they all undergo <u>heterotrophic mode of nutrition</u> <u>as evident in the question 'that they must consume plants and animals as source of energy'</u>

<u>→they exchanged communication by nervous ssytem and </u>

<u>→ use homeostatic mechanisms to regulate water balance of the body through the kidney.</u>

<u>→Humans,Rabbits,and whales are</u><u> VIVIPAROUS; they give birth to young ones alive.</u>

→Most fishes lay eggs to reproduce, they are said to be <u>Ovoviviparous.</u>

<u>They belong to phylum Chordata because ;</u>

<u>→they  all have noto chord;</u> which serve as template for axial skeleton.

<u>dorsal hollow nerve cord </u>-template for the brain and spinal cord

<u>→pharyngeal slits- </u>templates for gill aches in bony fishes and components of inner ear in land animals.

<u>→ tail</u> length varies  in these organisms.
