So the question here wants us to talk about protists, which are, if we recall here, a type of cellular organism that is going to be in the three categories.
00:12
So in organisms of the world, we have either eukaryotes, prokaryotes, and then protists.
00:21
So in this case, we'll be talking about the features of protists.
00:24
So in this case, we're essentially asked what feature of protists.
00:29
We'll allow them to survive harsh environmental conditions here.
00:34
So for part a, we have vegetative cells.
00:37
So if we recall what are vegetative cells.
00:39
So they're essentially going to be cells that are able to reproduce asexually.
00:46
So essentially they can just split off and bud in that particular case.
00:50
They don't require something else.
00:52
However, if we recall, vegetative cells aren't really found as part of protists.
00:57
And if they're in harsh and environmental conditions, they don't really serve that much of a benefit in order to allow them to survive as if they grow, they replicate itself.
01:08
However, it's just going to die.
01:09
So that cannot be a feasible option.
01:11
For b here, it basically states that we have plankton...
