Choanozoa—It's the branch that animals are most directly connected to.
Luden [163]3 years ago

Answer: The correct answer is-

Choanozoa.

A phylogenetic tree is a representation of evolutionary relationship between different species. It is constructed on the basis of their similarities and differences in their morphological ( physical traits) as well as genetic characteristics.

Two species are said to be most closely related if they share most recent common ancestor. In other words, when two species are descended from a most recent common ancestor, they are said to be most closely related with each other.

In this question, Animals and Choanozoa share most recent common ancestor.

Thus, animals are most closely related to Choanozoa.

What is point source pollution?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

  1. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines point source pollution as any contaminant that enters the environment from an easily identified and confined place.
  2. The classic image of a factory smokestack belching smoke and fumes into the air or an industrial discharge pipe pouring contaminated liquid into a river are some great examples of point source releases to the environment.
  3. Nonpoint source (NPS) pollution is pollution resulting from many diffuse sources, in direct contrast to point source pollution which results from a single source.

Hope this helps :)

Name two organelles you could find in a euglena that you couldn't find in a zooflagellate
Aleks [24]
Zooflagellate is a free living protozoan with a whip like appendage. It is non-photosynthetic and feed on decaying organic matter. Euglena is a single cell flagellate eurkaryote, which has features of both plant and animal. Two organelles that are present in euglena but which are not present in zooflagellate are chloroplast and photoreceptors.

Metagenomics (check all that apply): Group of answer choices Can leverage Next Generation Sequencing technology to identify and
ikadub [295]

Answer:

- Can leverage Next Generation Sequencing technology to identify and characterize organisms

- Has resources to support analysis at the DOE-JGI site.  

- Can identify microbiologic organisms without traditional isolation and culturing of individual organisms.

Explanation:

Metagenomics can be defined as the study of whole genomes of biological communities recovered from environmental samples. This genomic field has enabled the discovery of new species (microorganisms) and their effects on the environment. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies allow to obtain huge amounts of genomic data, which has been a limitation in genomics and metagenomics. Metagenomic NGS (mNGS) is a technique used for sequencing nucleic acids present in a biological sample containing mixed populations of microorganisms. Finally, the Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) is a referent in metagenomic analysis, especially in genome assembly data obtained from microbial communities. This Science User Facility has developed a series of bioinformatics tools and databases in order to analyze metagenomic information.
