An analysis of the phylogeny of mutualistic and free-living fungi, as well as the rates of nucleotide substitutions in selected ribosomal RNA regions, was conducted with a view to determining how coevolution can drive changes in the heritable traits of a species.

The transition to mutualism accelerated the rate of molecular evolution for fungal species.
Which of the following statement(s) is/are TRUE? a. yeasts are unicellular fungi b. molds and mushrooms are filamentous fungi. The filaments are chains of cells called "hyphae" C. most protozoa are unicellular, animal-like members of Domain Archaea, many of which are motile and lack cell walls d. algae have historically been described as "plant-like" protists because they contain chloroplasts and cell walls e. organisms which make chlorophyll a can perform oxygenic photosynthesis f. all organisms which make chlorophyll a have chloroplasts g. Nostoc, algae and plants all make chlorophyll a and all have chloroplasts h. Nostoc, algae and plants have mitochondria which evolved from primitive endosymbiotic bacteria i.
