 D) The cell will expand and become turgid.

The plant cell will basically absorb all the water by osmosis and swell, but because it has a cell wall it will become turgid.

D. Hypotonic means the solution is greater inside the cell than outside the cell. In plant cells, this causes the vacuoles to become turgid.

According to the dichotomous key, in what way(s) is the house sparrow similar to the cobra? A) Both are autotrophic and live on
vitfil [10]

The correct answer is the option (D) Both are not a mammal, are multicellular, and are heterotrophic.

Keys in biology are used to identify the different species based on the easily identifiable features of the organism. A dichotomous key consists of a series of questions on features like habitat, mode of nutrition, class to which they belong and other features, with each question having two answers describing the characteristic features of an organism. The series of questions begin with a broader characteristic feature becoming narrow gradually and helping in the identification of the organism.

Both the house sparrow and a cobra cannot synthesize their own food and depend on other organisms for food. Hence they are heterotrophic. They are multicellular in nature. A cobra belongs to the class Repltiles and a house sparrow belongs to the class Aves. Thus, a house sparrow and a cobra are similar to each other in being multicellular, heterotrophic and not belonging to the class mammals.

Molecular evidence has led taxonomists to group bilaterally symmetrical animals in one of three clades: Deuterostomia, Lophototr
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

One distinguishing characteristicof all three clades i.e Deuterostomia, Lophototrochozoa, or Ecydysozoa are  balstopore development, internal body cavity and exoskeleton respectively

Explanation:

Apart from molecular difference, there exist structural differences between the three clades, which are as follows –  

Deuterostomia – The development of embryo is different from the protostomes as the first opening in this clade is anus and the blastopores develops into the anus.

Lophototrochozoa – They do not have ant distinguished internal body cavity. Organs with in coelom can move freely. For example - flatworm

Ecydysozoa – have the ability to shed their tough and flexible exoskeleton i.e cuticle , several times throughout their life span
