Answer: b. classify all organisms into monophyletic groups.

The plants, which are adapted for pollination via insects exhibit colorful petals and nectar to attract the insects, and sticky pollen, which adheres to the insects when they visit the flowers.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer: Cytoskeleton and cytoplasm

The cytoskeleton is a network of microfilaments that provide structure and support for the cell. You can think of them as the pillars/columns that hold up a house.

The cytoplasm is the aqueous fluid that fills the inside of the cell. This fluid is very important for giving a cell is shape/support. If the cytoplasm was drained out of a cell its shape would collapse like a water balloon losing its water.
