Diversity in Living Organisms Test - 10

Mammals are vertebrates (which means they have a backbone or spine). Also known as “warm-blooded,” endothermic animals regulate their own body temperate which allows them to live in almost every climate on Earth. Have hair on their bodies. Mammals are viviparous as they Produce milk to feed their babies

The scientific name of organisms consists of two words, the genus and species name. biological name of wheat is Triticum aestivum. Solanum tuberosum is the biological name of potato.

The national bird of India is peacock, whose scientific name is Pavo cristatus. The peafowl include three species of birds in the genera Pavo and Afropavo of the Phasianidea family, the pheasants and their allies. Male peafowl are known for their piercing call and their extravagant plumage. The latter is especially prominent in the Asiatic species, who have an eye-spotted "tail" or "train" of covert feathers which they display as part of a courtship ritual. The term peacock is properly reserved for the male; the female is known as a peahen,

Marchantia is a genus in the family Marchantiaceae of the order Marchantiales, a group of liverworts. The Marchantia shows differentiation into two layers: an upper assimilatory region and a lower storage region with a well-defined upper epidermis with air channels. It is variable in appearance and has several subspecies. It is dioicous, having separate male and female plants.

Marsilea quadrifolia is a herbaceous plant found naturally in central and southern Europe These small pteridophytes are of unusual appearance and do not resemble common ferns. Common names include water clover and four-leaf clover because the long-stalked leaves have four clover-like lobes and are either held above water or submerged

Cladophores are thallophytes. Thallus is unicellular and colonial. Colonies are jelly, like coloured yellowish to brownish. Cells are spherical to ovoid and are surrounded by well-defined, thick, stratified envelopes (sheaths) and thus forming colonial appearance. Each cell contains granular cytoplasm without any demarcation of organelles and nuclei

A pine is any conifer in the genus Pinus, of the family Pinaceae. Pinus is the sole genus in the subfamily Pinoideae belongs to gymnosperms which have naked seeds Gymnosperms are seed-bearing vascular plants, such as cycads, ginkgo, yews and conifers, in which the ovules or seeds are not enclosed in an ovary. The word "gymnosperm" comes from the Greek word gymnospermos, meaning "naked seeds".

Pisum sativum is the binomial name of Pea

Allium cepa is the scientific name for Onion

Triticum sativum is the scientific name of Wheat

Mangifera indica is the binomial name for mango according to the biological nomenclature

Lower organisms reproduce asexually to produce similar offspring. In hydra asexual reproduction takes place by budding method.Hydra genus of small, fresh-water animals of the phylum Cnideria and class Hydrozoa. They are native to the temperate and tropical regions When food is plentiful, many Hydra reproduce asexually by producing buds in the body wall, which grow to be miniature adults and simply break away when they are mature

Related orders form a class. Red and brown algae contain chlorophyll besides other pigments. Blue whale is not a fish but plasmodium is a pathogenic human parasite that causes malaria.

The blue whale is a marine mammal belonging to the baleen whales. At up to 29.9 metres in length and with a maximum recorded weight of 173 tonnes and probably reaching over 181 tonnes, it is the largest animal known to have ever existed and these are the mammals

Plasmodium, a genus of parasitic protozoans of the sporozoan subclass Coccidia that are the causative organisms of malaria. Plasmodium, which infects red blood cells in mammals (including humans), birds, and reptiles, occurs worldwide, especially in tropical and temperate zones

The common name of Ascaris is round worm due to cylindrical shape of the body. They are exclusively endoparasite.Ascaris is a genus of parasitic nematode worms known as the "small intestinal roundworms", which is a type of helminth (parasitic worm). Ascariasis is a disease caused by the parasitic roundworm Ascaris lumbricoides Ascaris lumbricoides eggs are extremely resistant to strong chemicals, desiccation and low temperatures.

Gymnosperm, any vascular plant that reproduces by means of an exposed seed, or ovule—unlike angiosperms, or flowering plants, whose seeds are enclosed by mature ovaries, or fruits. The seeds of many gymnosperms (literally “naked seeds”) are borne in cones and are not visible
Angiosperms are seed-bearing vascular plants. Their reproductive structures are flowers in which the ovules are enclosed in an ovary. The angiosperms are vascular seed plants in which the ovule (egg) is fertilized and develops into a seed in an enclosed hollow ovary. The ovary itself is usually enclosed in a flower, that part of the angiospermous plant that contains the male or female reproductive organs or both.

A flagellum  is locomotive organ of euglena is a whip-like structure that allows a cell to move. They are found in all three domains of the living world: bacteria, archaea, and eukaryota, also known as protists, plants, animals, and fungi. While all three types offlagella are used for locomotion, they are structurally very different.

A cilium locomotive organ of paramoecium is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells. Cilia are slender protuberances that project from the much larger cell body. There are two types ofcilia: motile cilia and nonmotile, or primary cilia, which typically serve as sensory organelles.
