PLEASE HELP A lichen is an organism that structurally appears to be a single organism. But a lichen is actually two different organisms—a fungus and green algae—living together as one organism. The fungal partner derives its nutrition from the photosynthesizing algae. How does a lichen differ in its photosynthetic activity from Elysia chlorotica, the sea slug that’s considered to be a photosynthesizing animal?
A.
In lichens, the fungi photosynthesize on their own, while Elysia chlorotica forms a relationship with a photosynthesizing plant.
B.
In lichens, the relationship with the algae lasts throughout the life cycle, but in Elysia chlorotica, the relationship occurs only during the immature juvenile stage of the slug’s life cycle.
C.
Lichens can photosynthesize only because of the living algal partner, while Elysia chlorotica incorporates chloroplasts from algae into its cells.
D.
In lichens, the association between the fungi and algae is permanent, while Elysia chlorotica associates with a photosynthesizing organism only when it requires food.

Read the following scenario to answer the following question. over the past 60 years, many amphibian species have experienced significant population declines, and some species have become extinct. scientists suspected that local human activities such as the destruction of wetlands, regional pollution, and deforestation were the main reasons for these losses. however, research over the past 20 years reveals significant amphibian population declines in protected areas of the world, such as nature preserves and parks. these global declines suggest widespread problems including increased ultraviolet radiation, acid rain, and disease. in switzerland, for example, 14 of the 20 native amphibian species are threatened with extinction. when most populations of a wide-ranging amphibian species are lost and the few remaining populations are widely separated, we expect to see that a. the founder effect becomes increasingly important b. microevolution no longer occurs c. gene flow between populations is reduced d. artificial selection becomes a greater factor in microevolution
