PLEASE HELP A lichen is an organism that structurally appears to be a single organism. But a lichen is actually two different organisms—a fungus and green algae—living together as one organism. The fungal partner derives its nutrition from the photosynthesizing algae. How does a lichen differ in its photosynthetic activity from Elysia chlorotica, the sea slug that’s considered to be a photosynthesizing animal?
A.
In lichens, the fungi photosynthesize on their own, while Elysia chlorotica forms a relationship with a photosynthesizing plant.
B.
In lichens, the relationship with the algae lasts throughout the life cycle, but in Elysia chlorotica, the relationship occurs only during the immature juvenile stage of the slug’s life cycle.
C.
Lichens can photosynthesize only because of the living algal partner, while Elysia chlorotica incorporates chloroplasts from algae into its cells.
D.
In lichens, the association between the fungi and algae is permanent, while Elysia chlorotica associates with a photosynthesizing organism only when it requires food.

Where does all the water go? according to the environmental protection agency (epa), in a typical wetland environment, 39% of the water is outflow; 46% is seepage; 7% evaporates; and 8% remains as water volume in the ecosystem (reference: united states environmental protection agency case studies report 832-r-93-005). chloride compounds as residuals from residential areas are a problem for wetlands. suppose that in a particular wetland environment the following concentrations (mg/l) of chloride compounds were found: outflow, 60.4; seepage, 73.7; remaining due to evaporation, 26.4; in the water volume, 46.8. (a) compute the weighted average of chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) for this ecological system. (round your answer to one decimal place.) mg/l (b) suppose the epa has established an average chlorine compound concentration target of no more than 58 mg/l. does this wetlands system meet the target standard for chlorine compound concentration? yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high. yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high.
