What term best describes the following organism: the so-called blue-green algae, they are photosynthetic bacteria; producing oxygen, they contain sheets of plasma membranes that contain photosystems; they utilize chlorophyll-a; just like plants; but contain phycolibin pigments that are not found in plant chloroplasts; form heterocysts that are nitrogen fixing; form akinetes (spores); and heterocysts (n-fixing cells); some have separation discs (hormonogonia) that cause filaments to fragment (dispersal); prochloronta a subclade that is ancestral to plant chloroplasts?
a) methanogen.
b) spirochaeta.
c) enteric bacteria.
d) extreme halophile.
e) cyanobacteria.

Fan egg cell containing the (n+1) number of chromosomes combines with a sperm cell containing the (n) number of chromosomes, what is the result of this union? a) all future somatic cells of the organism will contain the (2n + 1) number of chromosomes. b) all future somatic cells of the organism will contain the (2n - 1) number of chromosomes. c) only certain somatic cells of the organism will contain the (2n + 1) number of chromosomes. d) all future somatic cells of the organism will contain the normal diploid number of chromosomes.

Seen in some gram-positive bacilli, occurs when only the inner portion of a cell wall is deposited across the dividing cell. this new cross wall puts tension on the outer layer of the old cell wall. eventually, the outer wall breaks at its weakest point with a snapping movement that tears it most of the way around. the daughter cells can then remain hanging together almost side by side being held by a small remnant of the original outer wall. choose from the following statements the ones that correctly discuss reproduction using binary fission in a bacterial cell. select all that apply. view available hint(s) select all that apply. due to the stretching of the cytoplasmic membrane, both cells will contain a complete genome. each daughter cell will contain an equal number of organelles. the daughter cell will be a permanently smaller copy of the mother cell but will contain a complete genome. each daughter cell is an exact copy of the other, both genetically and morphologically
