The features given in the question are the characteristics features of the group of bacteria belonging to Cyanobacteria.

These Cyanobacteria are the prokaryotes which are capable of synthesizing the food through a process called photosynthesis. These bacteria use sunlight as their energy, use water and air to synthesize food. They under anaerobic condition synthesize the nitrogen in special structures called heterocyst, a characteristic feature of cyanobacteria.

Thus, the features given in the question are:  

1. contain photosystems to carry out photosynthesis.

2. producing oxygen

4. contain phycobilins

thinking about how gene expression affect cellular differentiation , explain why a rabbit looks so much different as an adult co
Kaylis [27]

Ans.

Cell differentiation is defined as a process, by which less specialized cells, such as embryonic cells become more specialized. The process of cell differentiation is regulated by gene expression. Gene expression involves a specific group of genes that are turned on (expressed) or turn off (repressed) and dictates a cell's function.

A fertilized egg represents a single, non-specialized cell that develops into a complex, multicellular organism by cell differentiation. Thus, a adult rabbit looks so much different as compared to a single fertilized cell or zygote, due to cell differentiation, which is regulated by gene expression.
