Answer:

El Euglena tiene color verde gracias a sus cloroplastos. La estructura que se encuentra en la base de la cola se conoce como fotoreceptor. Este último se encarga de detectar la luz, mientras que los cloroplastos generan azúcares mediante fotosíntesis.

Euglena presenta un color verde gracias al clorofila que se encuentra en los cloroplastos de este organismo, y la estructura corporal situada en su base se llama flagelo.

Explanation:

Las Euglenas son especies que habitan en aguas dulces y saladas, y se encuentran en gran cantidad en cuerpos de agua interiores, donde pueden proliferar y teñir la superficie del agua de zanjas y estanques de un color verde.

Este color verde que producen se debe en gran parte a la clorofila que se halla en sus cloroplastos, la cual es el pigmento responsable del color verde. Este pigmento también es el causante de la coloración en este caso.

Las Euglenas cuentan con una estructura corporal especializada, ubicada en la base de su cola, que les permite moverse.

Esta estructura especializada se denomina flagelo.

This suggests that we are almost guaranteed to have shared a common ancestor at some point during our evolutionary development. The 2 percent variation can result in significant phenotypical differences across species (as seen between humans and chimpanzees), which indicates that our species diverged fairly recently within the evolutionary timeline.

If you were shipping green bananas to a supermarket thousands of miles away, which of the following chemicals would you want to
-BARSIC- [2551]

Answer:

Ethylene. (Ans. D)

Explanation:

Ethylene controls the aging and ripening processes in plants. While many fruits and vegetables generate small amounts of ethylene, climacteric fruits like bananas produce larger quantities. This ethylene release accelerates respiration, triggers more ethylene production, and causes changes in color and flavor.

Therefore, when transporting green bananas over long distances to stores, the ethylene gas should be removed from their surrounding environment.
