<span>The common difference between the three organisms
is the area in which they specifically live or stay in the ocean. Planktons can’t
be seen by the naked eye and they require microscopes to be detected. Planktons
usually float in the water and they cannot move on their own that’s why they
are dependent in the movement of the water.
Nektons are organisms that swim through the water and they live in different
depths in the ocean ecosystem. Nektons are composed of fish and other mammals
that propel themselves through the water.
Benthos are organisms that live in the ocean floor and many of these organisms
stay in one place by attaching themselves to rocks. This adaptation protects
them from crashing waves and drastic water movements. Other benthos are known
to burrow in the ocean floor either for food or protection.</span>
<span>Cohesion- attraction of molecules of the same substanceCauses water molecules to be drawn together to form a smooth surface (surface tension)adhesion- attraction of molecules to different substances<span>The correct answer is A because the cohesion causes water to form in drops, and adhesion allows it to stick to different substances, such as the pine needles</span></span>
Virus are living because they:
Reproduce, have Genetic Material (Nucleic Acids) and Adapt
.
Explanation:
Virus have genes or genetic material which are layered in a capsid or protein coat and sometimes a lipid bilayer.
It is not made up of cells yet can be considered a living organism because of the genetic material RNA or DNA in it.
The infect the host and take over host replication machinery and replicates itself. Although it is not able to replicate outside the living body.
They adapt to the host's body environment as many adaptation are present in it as capsid layer which protects its genetic material from getting degrade till the time it reaches nucleus of the cell.
There are 7 point criteria for an organism to be living, virus fulfils some of it except having made up of cells and having cellular organization.
Although it depends on the breed of fungi, you're answer is going to be *C. a Decomposer*
I hope this helps! :)
