Students have asked these similar questions
Fungi and animals are both part of a group called Opisthokonta. The vast majority of fungi are multicellular. However, their sister taxon consists of unicellular species. Animals also are multicellular and their closest relatives are again unicellular. Briefly describe the two hypotheses that could explain the origin of multicellularity in the Opisthokonta, and then explain which of the two is the more likely hypothesis
Protists are(a) single-celled eukaryotes.(b) multicellular eukaryotes.(c) single-celled prokaryotes.(d) single-celled akaryote.
Please try to break the solutions into as many steps as practically possible and the steps should come one by one and they should be short and crisp and plagiarism-free.
a) Do you think that most plant and animal cells are similar to does we observed today?
b) Both atoms and the cells viewed today are small. Describe at least teo ways in which atoms and cells differ?
c) What criteria can you use to distinguish between cells of the organisms belonging to different eukaryotic kingdoms (planta, animals , fungi)

The student placed key characteristics in each circle and classmates are asked to review the work. Fungi Only Animals Only Both May be multicellular or unicellular Eukaryotic Multicellular Can reproduce asexually or sexually No cell wall Has a cell wall Heterotrophic Which feedback would be the MOST accurate? O A. "All animals only reproduce sexually so you need to move 'may reproduce sexually or asexually 'to fungi only." B. "You need to move the term heterotroph to the 'animals' circle because fungi can be heterotrophic or autotrophic." C. "You have all of the information correct." O D. "You should remove 'has a cell wall' because neither fungi nor animals have a cell wall.arrow_forward
