Euglena is green in color because of the chlorophyll that is contained in the chloroplast of that organism and the body structure that is located at its base is known as flagellum .

Explanation:

Euglena are species that are found in the fresh and salt water. They are abundantly found in inland waters where they manage themselves to bloom in large amount and color the water surface of ditches and ponds green.

This green color which them form are mainly due to the chlorophyll that is contained in the chloroplast of the organism. chlorophyll is known to be the pigment that is responsible for the green color.It is the cause for the green color in this case too.

Euglena contains a specialized body structure which is located at the base of the tail by which it manages to move.

This specialized structure is known as Flagellum.

Answer:

Euglena is green because it contains chloroplasts. The structure located at the base of the tail (the flagellum) is called the photoreceptor. The photoreceptor detects light, while the chloroplasts produces sugars through photosynthesis.

olga55 [171]

Phlebotomy refers to a collection of venous blood. This operation can be practiced on all the superficial veins of the body, on those of the foot, the leg, the neck, the whole upper limb. It must be done in an area where there is a protruding vein and the least sensitive to limit pain to the patient. It should not be done in an altered, injured or infected area (like bruise)

The blood is collected on tubes with or without anticoagulant according to the analyzes that one wants to practice.

The reason for choosing the sampling site is for the most part practical, the veins are easily identifiable, and easily accessible for paramedical personnel. Their collection is less dangerous than that of arteries, which are generally thinner and close to the peripheral nerves.

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

The evolution of vascular tissues in plants from non-vascular plants was an adaptive feature to survive in the terrestrial environment.  The group of plants in which vascular tissues evolved and developed is the Pteridophytes which contained stellar organization of the vascular bundles.

The pteridophytes exhibited xylem and phloem which allows the rapid uptake of the water and nutrients from the soil which allowed the growth of the plant and since plants got enough water and nutrients from the soil, they adapted to grow tall so that they can maximize the output of photosynthesis in bright sunshine.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
