Answer:

Diatoms have a cell wall that includes silica, while dinoflagellates have a cell wall that includes cellulose.

Explanation:

Diatoms are unicellular algae. Some of them can live in colonies forming filaments or ribbons, they are surrounded by a cell wall made of silica called a frustula.

They are microscopic animals, almost always single-celled. They have flagella. They can be divided into two large groups differentiated by the presence or absence of cellulosic plaques in the cell wall or amphysm.

The "frustule" cell wall of diatoms. A dinoflagellate isn't constructed this way. The frustule is composed of two parts which are pretty much identical except for size -- one of the parts is slightly smaller than the other.

Fill in the missing words. naturalselection foundereffect geographicallyisolated species evolution
grandymaker [24]

Hi!


The ancestral finch founded a new population on one of the Hawaiian Islands. Due to the founder effect , allele frequencies of the first small population on one of the islands could have differed from their continental goldfinch-like ancestors. The process of natural selection resulted in adaptation and evolution of the island population into a new species over time. Some of the birds crossed to some of the other islands where they were geographically isolated and evolved into more species occupying different niches.


In terms of population genetics, founder effect is when there is a loss of genetic diversity as a result of the establishment of a new population by a relatively few individuals. Following such an establishment, natural selection is the process  which results in the genes of the fittest individuals of the population being selected over generations. This process ultimately results in evolution, and over time may give rise to new species. Geographical isolation is the physical separation of a population from another owing to geographical changes in the terrain or area. If two populations of the same species are geographically isolated, there is a great chance over time they may evolve into two different species.


Hope this helps!

20. Explain how health care professionals treat unregulated (or abnormal) cellular growth in the body
goldenfox [79]

Unregulated and uncontrolled cell growth is the most common simple definition of cancer. Because of the many types of cancers and a huge range of possible symptoms, treatments are also very diverse. Type of treatment also depends on cancer stage at diagnosis, and the patient's overall health. Some forms of treatment:

• Chemotherapy-usage of chemicals (medications) that target rapidly uncontrolled dividing cells,

• Hormone therapy

• Immunotherapy-usage of the medications that boost the immune system

• Radiation therapy-usage of radiation to kill the cancer cells

• Surgery

• New approaches such as stem cell therapy or personalized therapy.
