Question
Chapter 28, Problem 5IQ
a.
Summary Introduction
To explain: The way in which foram fossils are used.
Introduction: Forams are the protists that are also called as the foraminiferans. The word foraminiferans had come from the word foramen means "a little hole" and ferre means "to bear".
b.
Summary Introduction
To explain: The genetic and morphological evidence about the origin of the chromatophore.
Introduction: Serial endosymbiosis hypothesis suggests that eukaryotic organelles like chloroplast have evolved by the symbiotic association between two free-living cells in which a larger cell is engulfed by a smaller cell.
