Answer: All the above options are correct about the characteristics of Lumbriculus variegatus.
Explanation:
Lumbriculus variegatus also called the black worm belongs to the phylum Annelida and is used by biologists to illustrate:
-blood vessel pulsations,
-swimming reflex,
-peristaltic crawling behavior,
-giant nerve fiber action potentials.
These studies where carried out on them due to the characteristics they possess. These includes:
-its blood circulates in a closed circulatory system
-Freshwater worm found throughout North America and Europe
-Prefers the shallow habitats found at the edges of ponds, lakes, or marshes
-Feeds on decaying vegetation and microorganisms.
Double fertilization-plants with seeds (flowering plants), two male gametes joining with female gametophyte
Gametophyte generation-both (haploid, sexual stage stage-gametophyte, and the diploid stage that produces spores – sporophyte)
Endosperm formed-plants with seed because it is a tissue formed inside the seed which surrounds the embryo and provides nutrition
Mitosis-both (mitosis occurres in spores)
Spores develop into gametophytes-both but, in seedless plants sporophyte produces spores that will develop into a new organism (multicellular gametophyte) using mitosis, while spores of seed plants are produced internally and develop into more complex structures.
