vlabodo [156]

Answer:

2. Tuber

Explanation:

Reproduction is the process by which living organisms multiply themselves. They do this through two major ways namely: asexually and sexually. Sexual reproduction involves two organisms (male and female) that each donate a gamete (sperm and egg). In plants, the sexual reproductive structure is the FLOWER. The male flower is called STAMEN, while the female flower is called PISTIL.

However, plants can also be propagated asexually by making use of certain plant parts including tubers, leaf etc. TUBER is a structure in plant specifically used to asexually reproduce plants like yam, potato, cassava etc.

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is C: l<em>oss of chloroplasts.</em>

Explanation:

The parasite would lose chloroplasts. As they absorb nutrients from the fish digest food in the gut of the animal, parasites do not need to photosynthesize any more. There are some parasites in the fishes digestive tract that conserve their motile capacity by keeping their flagellum or cilium. Some species get their membranes thicker for protection in their interaction with the host, and they can also secrete a special capsule.  In general, these organisms reproduce asexually.
