Which of the following characters of Nostoc resembles other prokaryotes
A) Absence of definite nucleus
B) Ability to fix nitrogen
C) Multiplication by fission
D) All the above
Answers
Answer:
The correct answer is A) Absence of definite nucleus
Explanation:
Prokaryotes exist in organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and other organelles. Prokaryotes are divided into two different groups: bacteria and the archaea, which scientists believe have special evolutionary lineages. Most prokaryotes are small, single-celled organisms that contain a relatively simple structure.
Nostoc exists in unicellular cyanobacteria. They include a prokaryotic cell. They are autotrophic and accomplish photosynthesis. They are competent in nitrogen-fixing and create a symbiotic connection with specific bryophytes. They possess differentiated cells known as heterocyst's, which function as nitrogen fixation.
The correct answer is A) Absence of definite nucleus.
