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.

Explain why an envelope virus that simply leaks out of an infected cell can be worse than a virus that quickly lyses and kills t
o-na [289]

Answer:

The enveloped viruses are resistant to disinfectants.

Explanation:

The outer covering or the envelope in the virus comes from the infected cell. This envelope is formed by the process called as budding off, from the host cell. The envelope that covers the virus provides resistance to various disinfectants and prevent virus from damage. The outer coat (envelope) is formed of a small part of cell membrane.

The virus that lyses and kills the cell immediately is less worse than the enveloped virus. The virus that kills cells immediately prevents the host cell from continuously synthesizing new virus particles. Thus, no more viral particles can be produced by the host cell. So, envelope viruses are worse that viruses that directly kills the host cell.

Photosynthesis is one of the main processes that is basically responsible for the function of all living things. Without it carbon would not be cycled, oxygen would not be made and plants would not be able to creat food for themselves and would have to rely on another source.
