Document Summary

Peterozoic eon a eukaryotic flagellum is a bundle of nine fused pairs of microtubule doublets surrounding two central single mircotubules: combination of haplontic and diplontic. Its diploid state (sporophyte) undergoes meiosis to form male/female gametophytes: gametophytes do not combine immediately, so they are called spores, they may come from the same individual of the same species. Co2 a member of a large group of unicellular microorganisms that have cell walls but lack organelles and an organized nucelus. Contractile vacuole microtubules and forms the base of a flagellum or cilium: identical in internal structure to a centriole. A eukaryotic cell with two flagella; thought to be the ancestor of all plants. In order for cells to function and survive, their organelles work together to carry out specific tasks and perform specific roles. Each organelle has its own role that contributes to the survival of the cell.
