The red despot on the euglena is important for detecting light for photosynthesis and filters the sunlight to only allow certain wavelengths of light to a structure at the base of the flagellum

Answer:

C. Detecting light for photosynthesis.

Explanation:

An Euglena is a protozoan. It has an single cell which makes it a unicellular organism. It is also has a well defined nucleus with membrane bound organelles which makes the Euglena eukaryotic in nature.

An Euglena possesses both human and plant like traits. Its human trait is that an Euglena moves with the aid of a flagella. Its plant like trait is that an Euglena has chloroplast present as one of its membrane bound organelles which its uses for photosynthesis.

Due to the presence of animal and plant like traits in an Euglena, and Euglena is both autotrophic and heterotrophic in nature.

One of the organelles present in the Euglena is its eyespot. This is a very important organelle because the Euglena uses the eyespot to detect sunlight for the process of photosynthesis. The chloroplast then traps this detected light for photosynthesis.

What is the difference between heterozygous and homozygous individuals? What is the difference between heterozygous and homozygo
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

All of the gametes from a homozygote carry the same version of the gene while those of a heterozygote will differ.

Explanation:

A heterozygous individual carries both dominant and recessive alleles of a gene while a homozygous individual carries two copies of either dominant or recessive alleles of a gene. For example, the genotype TT and tt have two copies of dominant and recessive alleles respectively and are therefore homozygous genotypes. On the other hand, the genotype "Tt" is a heterozygous genotype.

An individual with a homozygous genotype would produce all the gametes having the same allele of the gene. The homozygous genotype "TT" would produce all the gametes with one copy of the "T" allele. An individual with a heterozygous genotype makes two types of gametes. The genotype "Tt" would produce 50% gametes having a "T" allele and rest 50% having a "t" allele. Segregation of alleles during meiosis produces different types of gametes in a heterozygous Individual.
