Bottom feeders are aquatic animals that feed on the bottom of a body of a water. Crayfish is the bottom feeder. It is not active swimmer, it feed on stationary or slow pray, so it does not have such a streamlined body necessary to reduce drag during swimming. Its mouth is located on the underside of their heads and that way mouth is closer to the bottom where their food is.

Mitochondria and chloroplast are two organelles found in eukaryotic cells. Chloroplast is only found in plants while majority of eukaryotic cells have mitochondria. Even though both organelles are found in eukaryotic cells, both mitochondria and chloroplast have characteristics often found in prokaryotic cells.
Answer: The correct sequence in the expression of a trait is gene > protein > trait (Option B).
Explanation:
During gene transcription, a linear fragment of DNA referred to as a 'gene' is used as template to synthesize a complementary messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence.
Subsequently, this mRNA is then used as template to create a protein by a process called translation.
Moreover, phenotypic traits can be defined as all observable characteristics that an organism has.
The phenotypic traits are largely determined by the expression of either enzymatic or structural proteins, which interact to shape the phenotype of an organism.
In conclusion, the correct sequence in the expression of a trait is gene > protein > trait (Option B).
Answer: Amoebas of the Entamoeba group
Explanation:
Amoebiasis, also known amoebic dysentery, is an infection caused by any of the amoebae of the Entamoeba group. Symptoms are most common during infection by Entamoeba histolytica. Amoebiasis can be present with no, mild, or severe symptoms. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, diarrhea, or bloody diarrhea.
Answer:
A)100mL B)50mL C)The second option D)Hypoosmotic Environment
Explanation:
The average Na concentration in the seas and oceans of the world is around 3,5% which mean that in 100 ml of sea water, there is around 3,5 grams of Na.
The weight of one mol of NaCl is 58,44 grams. For 3,5 grams of NaCl, we get 3,5/58,44 = 0,060 mol of NaCl which is 0,060x1000 = 60 mmol/100ml. According to this and the information given in the question about the secretion of the salt glands', if the average sodium concentration is 600mmol/L, we have 60*10 = 600mmol/L so it would take 100 mililiters of water to excrete.
If the average Na concentration of the salt gland's secretion were 300 mmol/L, only 50 mililiters of water would be needed to excrete the same sodium load.
The second option of secretion is hyperosmotic to seawater because the concentration is higher.
Osmoregulation is the process of balancing the amount of water and salt between the body of the organism and its surrounding environment. For salt glands to be advantageous for osmoregulation, they need to be in a hypoosmotic environment.
I hope this answer helps.
