Answer:

The answer is A) Phagocytosis.

Explanation:

An amoeba usually gets its nutrients from engulfing large food particles by the process of phagocytosis.

  1. As an amoeba approaches the desired food particle, it <u>extends it pseudopods</u> around it, eventually <em>surrounding the food </em>and internalizing it.
  2. The food then becomes enclosed by the pseudopodia, creating a <u>food vacuole</u>.
  3. Digestive enzymes, such as <u>lysosomes</u>, will <u>fuse with the food vacuole</u> and start breaking down the food. The nutrients will then be diffused throughout the cytoplasm.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the disorder is recessive, neither parent has to have the disorder because

they can be heterozygous. The characteristic features of autosomal recessive inheritance is as follows:-

•Appears in both sexes with equal frequency

• Trait tend to skip generations

• Affected offspring are usually born to unaffected parents

• When both parents are heterozygous approx. 1/4 of the progeny will be affected

• Appears more frequently among the children of consanguineous marriages.

The given pedigree follows these features. So the correct option is 'Autosomal recessive trait'.

Please correct me If I am wrong :)
