Kingdom Monera was the oldest kingdom of living organisms. The organisms in the kingdom were simple, single celled and their cellular organelles were not covered by membranes. Prokaryotic bacteria were the first known Monerans. However, scientists think that Monerans were evolved into more complex eukaryotic organisms (Protists) with the passage of time.
But how did Monera (Prokaryotes) was evolved into Protista (Eukaryotes)?
Protista are eukaryotes, unicellular or simple multicellular organisms.Many theories were proposed for this evolution, but one that makes most sense was endosymbiotic theory. According to this, the first eukaryotic cells were evolved when two prokaryotic cells existed in an endo-symbiotic relationship. Larger prokaryotic cells engulfed smaller prokaryotic cells. The smaller cells got shelter and nutrients from larger cells and both co-existed in a mutualistic relationship. Both cells eventually evolved into organelles and got never aparted. This is how more complex organisms’ protists were evolved from simple monerans. It was a gradual process and took millions of years.
The earliest fungi were single-celled organisms that contain a flagella to move from one place to another. Recent studies indicate that fungi belong to a group of organisms which were evolved from protists over the course of time. These studies are based on the nucleotide sequence of fungi that matches to a large extent with old protists. It is estimates that fungi evolved 600 million years or even before.
Answer: The answer is option C) two different species on the basis of reproductive behavior
Explanation:
This situation observed in South America is a good example of Sympatric speciation.
Where, two organisms similar in many respects by
- occurring in the same territory, differing ONLY as two different species because they DO NOT interbreed - thus, becoming different species on the basis of reproductive behavior.
So, option C is the answer
Answer:
I believe the answer is A) energy pyramid
Explanation:
It's talking about trophic levels, as opposed to individual organisms.
Consider this:
Each parent has two sex chromosomes.
The mother, as a female, has chromosomes XX.
The father, a male, has XY.
The mother will pass on one sex chromosome to the baby, as will the father.
The mother can only pass on an X.
The father, however, has a 50/50 chance of passing on an X or Y.
XX would make a female and XY would make a male.
Simply put, the sex chromosome from your mother is fixed, it's going to be an X no matter what. It's which sex chromosome your father passes on that determines your sex.
Bioprospecting is the search for plant and animal species from which medicinal drugs and other commercially valuable compounds can be obtained.
Based on this I think it could be B.
Hope this helps.
