- Can you answer all the parts of this question about this picture A: This structure belongs to an organism from what phylum? - Answer choices: Mollusca, Nemertea, Platyhelminthes, Rotifera B: What is the structure shown above?arrow_forwardWhich group is correctly paired with its description? A. diatoms-important consumers in aquatic communities B. diplomonads-protists with modified mitochondria C. apicomplexans -producers with intricate life cycles D. red algae-acquired plastids by secondary endosymbiosisarrow_forwardHow can scientists determine that multicellularity arose more than once in different lineages? Select one: a. Scientists do not know b. Bacteria live as multicellular groups called biofilms c. Animals are more closely related to single-celled eukaryotes than to fungi d. Fungi can produce multicellular structuresarrow_forward
- Put characteristics on this phylogenetic tree.arrow_forwardImagine you come across an animal with a worm-like biody. Determine whether it is a polychaete or a member of class Hirudinida? Give two distinct differences between the two without naming the same structure/invisible features of each animal (e.g animal x has 2 wings, animal y has 4 wings are not distinct differences)arrow_forwardCould you explain this:arrow_forward
- Based on the phylogenies presented in your book, which of the following could best be described as the most closely related to rats? fungi green algae slime molds alveloata Giardiaarrow_forwardBased on the table, explain why there are more similarities between humans and chimpanzees than between humans and dogs.arrow_forwardSponges are highly ancestral animals. One unique property found in sponges that is not present in vertebrates is; Sexual reproduction totipotent cells which can transform into other cell types specialized stinging cells photosynthesisarrow_forward
