Concept explainers
To determine:
The process by which evolutionary expansion of eukaryotic organisms changes the way carbon is cycled through biological communities.
Introduction:
Eukaryotes distinguish from other organisms because it contains a eukaryotic cell with true nucleus. There are limited number of sources of carbon and energy for eukaryotes.
The evolutionary expansion of eukaryotic organisms helps them to survive in their environment. They have various features that can help them to be successful in evolutionary expansion.
Explanation of Solution
Eukaryotes are successful because they have the ability to evolve some novel functions. They can evolve gene regulation patterns, cell shape by remodeling, and multiple cell types that can interact with growth and development. They have dynamic cytoskeleton and cell membrane that provides them structure and shape.
Subsets of
The evolutionary expansion of eukaryotic organisms changes the way carbon is cycled through biological communities by adding predation and some other novel features in the carbon cycle.
