Question
Chapter 28.4, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To suggest: The reason why the green algal lineage species colonize the land more likely than the red algal lineage.
Concept introduction: Red algae is the closest algal relative that has a phycoerythrin (photosynthetic pigment), which is reddish in colour and is mostly multicellular organism. Green algae possess the grass-green chloroplasts. They are similar in the pigment composition and structure as in the chloroplasts of plants.

WRITE ABOUT A THEME: INTERACTIONS Organisms interactwith each other and the physical environment. In a shortessay (100–150 words), explain how the response of diatompopulations to a drop in nutrient availability can affect bothother organisms and aspects of the physical environment(such as carbon dioxide concentrations).
Microtaxonomy (Species and Speciation)
Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is a fungus that causes mango anthracnose. It's a devastating disease being avoided by mango farmers. For example, in the island province of Guimaras, Philippines, one cannot bring mango into the island to avoid contamination of the mango plantations. Guimaras produces the sweetest mango in the world. One challenge in the control of mango anthracnose is that C. gloeosporioides is a species complex. What is a complex and how do we provide clear delineation (if we can) among these closely related species?
DNA sequence data for a diplomonad, a euglenid, a plant, and an unidentified protist suggest that the unidentified species is most closely related to the diplomonad. Further studies reveal that the unknown species has fully functional mitochondria. Based on these data, at what point on the phylogenetic tree in Figure 1 did the mystery protist’s lineage probably diverge from other eukaryote lineages? Explain.
