Question

13
Gas vacuoles are found in
(A
Chlorophyceae
(В
Phaeophyceae
(C)
Rhodophyceae
(D)
Cyanophyceae​

Answer 1

Answer:

Gas vesicles, also known as gas vacuoles, are nanocompartments which are freely permeable to gas, and occur mainly in Cyanobacteria, but are also found in other bacteria species and some archaea. Gas vesicles allow the bacteria to control their buoyancy.

Answer 2

Answer:

(C)

Cyanophyceae

Explanation:

Gas vacuoles are found almost exclusively in aquatic bacteria, where they provide buoyancy. By regulating their buoyancy through control of gas vacuoles, these bacteria may be able to select particular depths where the conditions are favorable for growth. eg:-bacteria, cyanobacteria, protozoa, algae, and tiny animals such as rotifers.
