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.

Life cycle complexity
Describe a generalized complex life cycle for a parasite that would encompass one or more intermediates hosts and multiple larval stages. Why would this heteroxenic life cycle be an evolutionary advantage over a monoxenic one?
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.

- MAKE CONNECTIONS The bacterium Wolbachia is asymbiont that lives in mosquito cells and spreads rapidlythrough mosquito populations. Wolbachia can make mosquitoes resistant to infection by Plasmodium; researchersare seeking a strain that confers resistance and does notharm mosquitoes.
