If cyanobacteria never evolved during earth's history, how would their absence affect the composition of earth's atmosphere?
Blababa [14]
Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, are found in vast quantities in fresh and salt water. Cyanobacteria are able to conduct photosynthesis. By utilising energy from the sun, they produce carbohydrates from water and carbon dioxide. As a byproduct, they produce oxygen. So cyanobacteria provided oxygen to the atmosphere that allowed other lifeforms to develop.

____ [38]

Answer:

(C). white blood cell production

Explanation:

CSFs (colony stimulating factors) are glycoproteins that activate intracelluar pathways and promote proliferation of hemopoietic stem cell to form immune cells (white blood cells).

CSFs are released in response to infection and interacts with blood stem cells to produce new immune cells. These resulting new immune cells create an army of cells to fight against the infection and provide immunity.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
