Answer:

The microorganism creates its own energy.

Explanation:

Based on the pattern of nutrition, a living organism can either be autotrophic or heterotrophic. Autotrophic organisms are those organisms capable of synthesizing its own food or energy source using light (photosynthesis) or chemicals (chemosynthesis). Heterotrophs, on the other hand, cannot synthesize their own food, hence, they depend on other organisms for energy.

According to this question, a researcher claims that a newly discovered microorganism is an autotroph. For this claim to be true, this means that the microorganism must be capable of CREATING ITS OWN FOOD/ENERGY either by photosynthesis (light) or chemosynthesis (inorganic chemicals).

What is the significance of the evolution of Hox gene clusters during vertebrate evolution?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Duplication of Hox genes made increased morphological complexity possible.

Explanation:

  • The hox gene cluster consists of a group of related genes that function to controls the basic body plan of an embryo and also define the head to the tail axis.
  • These are mainly responsible for ensuring the correct position of al the structures in the body.
  • Since the anterior-posterior axis all the vertebrates are established by these hox genes this points out to the fact that common information is needed amongst all he vertebrates to define the various morphological variations that occurred.
  • The hox genes have shown duplication in the course of evolution and they have undergone a four-fold duplication which has led to the generation fo different structures in the various organism and is thus responsible for the increased morphological complexity.
