Concept explainers
To draw: The phylogenetic tree consisting of the several types of the protists, plants, algae, and the
Concept introduction: The phylogenetic tree alignment of the supergroup species of the protists, plants, and the algae consists of the placement of the species in the various groups. The branches represent the starting of the trees, roots, and the phylogenetic diversity and the distance of each species present in the group.
The broad spectrum of the antibiotic drugs is used for combating and controlling the infection caused by the growth and infection of various pathogenic strains of fungi, plants, prokaryotic bacteria, and small microbes. The ribosomal RNA sequence analysis of the genome is analyzed based on the homology and the similarity in the sequences present in the genome.
Given data: The given data include the names of the various protists in groups like the Excavata, SAR, Archaeplastida, Unikonta, amoebozoans, animals, choanoflagellates, fungi, and Nucleariida species.

- magine that you are conducting research on fruit type and seed dispersal. You submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document. Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different. (Editor’s note: Providing this information in your discussion will help readers to consider the significance of the research).arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between Uniporters, Symporters and Antiporters?
