Mark all correct statements about the supergroup, Archaeplastida.

Archaeplastida includes all of the photosynthetic organisms on Earth

Archaeplastida includes only species that are descended from an ancestor that is thought to have become photosynthetic by engulfing a photosynthetic prokaryote

Archaeplastida includes all of the photosynthetic eukaryotes on Earth

Homework Answers

Answer #1

Ans. Correct option- B, C. Archaeplastida is the supergroup of photosynthetic eukaryotes that have plastids derived from endosymbiosis of a photosynthetic prokaryotes (cyanobacteria).

The engulfment (more precisely, endosymbiosis) of photosynthetic cyanobacteria with the host cell gave rise to the eukaryotic cells with plastids.

All the photosynthetic eukaryotes on Earth, including land plants, green algae, red algae, etc. belong to the supergroup Archaeplastida because their plastid (chloroplast) is derived from symbiosis of cyanobacteria.

# Option A. Incorrect. Prokaryotic synthetic bacteria like cyanobacteria do not belong to Archaeplastida because they don’t have a plastid of prokaryotic symbiosis.

Suppose that in the evolutionary history of these organisms, the mark "c" indicates the appearance of and strong selection for the trait "extra hairy legs." Is it possible that leaf-cutter bees have perfectly smooth legs, with no hair at all, when all of the other lineages descended from ancestral population "c" do have hair? If so, explain how that could have evolved. If not, explain why not.

Mark all the correct statements. When two assets are not correlated, it is possible to create a portfolio with them that will have zero standard deviation. When two assets' correlation is +1, the minimum variance portfolio (allowing no short selling) consists of 100% from the asset with the lesser variance. Even very risk averse investors prefer the Optimum Risky Portfolio to the Minimum Variance Portfolio. Given a 50-50% investment into two predetermined risky assets, the lower their correlation, the lower...

7)  Select the true statements about how bacteria can get new genetic material.  Circle all that apply. Conjugation can occur only between bacteria of the same species. In transformation, bacteria can pick up pieces of bacterial DNA from their surroundings. It is necessary for viruses to be lysogenic for restricted transduction to occur. In transduction, bacterial genes end up in viral capsids. Bacterial conjugation can use pili, which act as pseudopods, engulfing genes from another bacterium to incorporate them into the cell’s...
