Explanation:
A slow, continuous process is defined as gradualism that occurs at slow rate but at a steady pace.
For example, stripes of a tiger develop slowly and at a steady pace so that they can hide in tall grass represents gradualism.
Whereas punctuated equilibrium is a process in which there is sudden and frequent changes that results in the formation of new species.
For example, species living in a sea for thousand of years breed and die over there and suddenly when there is change in sea level than animals must adapt represents punctuated equilibrium.
The first one is the 3rd option and the 2nd one is also the 3rd option

Answer:
D. heterotrophic by ingestion, pseudopods
Explanation:
Protists are generally classified as all eukaryotic organisms that are not plants, animals or fungi. Example is amoeba, paramecium etc.They may be unicellular or multi cellular in nature.Most exist in colonies.
Their mode of nutrition can be photosynthetic or hetrotrophic. Hetrotrophic protists can be divided into phagotrophs and osmotrops/saprotrophs. The phagotrophs makes use of the cell body to engulf the food materials as in amoeba ,carry out extracellular digestion before swallowing it.
Osmotrops absorbed dissolved food from surrounding liquid environments directly. (Some photosynthetic protists can also be heterotrophic.
Amoeboid movement is the mode of locomotion of protists and some other eukaryotes. It involved the protrusion of cytoplasm, which exert pressure on the cell membrane to form pseudopodia and the posterioly evolved <u>Uropods. </u>

<u>Sol-gel theory has been proposed to expalin this movements, The ectopalsm of amoeba is gelly-like , while the endiplams is less viscpus and said to be sol. The interchange of the cytoplasmic fluis between the endo-and ecto plasm gives the SOL-GEL propulsion of the protopalms for the amoebic moveemnts .</u>

<u>The false feet(psuedopodium) drags the amoeba along in the direction of the flow of the cytoplasm.</u>
Therefore option D is the right option
Answer:
Basic Research
Explanation:
The initial discovery and analysis of the Lake Vida bacteria allowed them to be classified thereby leading to an understanding of their basic metabolic processes.
Although ,the introductory passage suggested several ways that this could lead to applied research by allowing the development of new products.
Conclusively, the research is a basic in nature because it gave a better understanding of the natural world.
