Textbook Question
Chapter 25, Problem 10RQ
A scientist sequences the genome of Chara, red algae, and a tomato plant. What result would support the conclusion that Charophytes should he included in the F’/amae kingdom?
- The Chara genome is more similar to the red algae than the tomato plant
- All three genomes are distinctly different
- The Chara genome is more similar to the tomato plant genome than the red algae genome

- In the space below, diagram generalized haplontic, diplontic, and alternation of generations life cycles. Make sure to indicate whether each stage in the life cycle is haploid or diploid, and unicellular or multicellular. Also write the stage's name (e.g., zygote, gametophyte, spore, etc.) if it has one. You don't need to draw the stages - e.g., for a zygote you can just write "zygote, unicellular, 2N". Also make sure to indicate where exactly in the life cycle meiosis takes place. Please draw and label these as possible clearly as Haplontic Diplontic Alternation of generationsarrow_forwardWhich of the following is not correct?A.
