A young student is trying to recapitulate an experiment discussed in the text. She introduces single-celled green algae into a p
etri dish containing predatory protists. After several generations, what will she observe? A)The protists will produce multicellular colonies.
B)Green algae will form multicellular colonies.
C)Green algae will remain unicellular (i.e., there is no benefit to forming multicellular structures).
D)Both protists and green algae will remain unicellular.
E)None of the answer options is correct.
She will observe that Green algae will form multi-cellular colonies.
<u>Explanation:</u>
There are different advantages that can be obtained from the characteristics of multicellularity of algae. The main thing that is very essential for the the nature of multicellularity is the coordination and cell interaction in algae. The cell communication can be achieved by the transfer of materials of cytoplasm.
The cellcommunication can also be achieved through the molecules that are diffusible in nature. these are are the unique and common characteristics of the organisams that are multicellular. They will be following a varied pattern of cell growth and cell division to form colonies.
The DNA double helix is held together by two main forces: hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs inside the helix and the Van der Waals base-stacking interaction.
