Explain how the Alveolata support this claim.

Hello everyone and welcome to today's video today we need to identify the incorrect statement regarding of yolanda. So let's jump straight into the answer choices so that we can solve the problem. Beginning by answer choice A The term of yolanda means pitted like a honeycomb. Although this sounds strange. This is actually a correct answer choice. And it is something that we use to relate to these organisms. So why is this? Well, the answer to that is actually related to answer choice. C the most notable short characteristic is the presence of cortical of your life. Because of how these cortical obvio like look these pitted like a honeycomb is a reference to these structure. They look like honeycomb. And so this is why the organisms or the group of organisms are called all the A lotta. We're going to cancel this out as well because of this. Then we have b obviously let's have mitochondria with tubular Christie. This tubular Christie is going to enhance respiration in these ovulate. This is actually a correct statement as well. And we're going to cancel it out. Then we have answer choice. The this group contains only parasitic protest. There's actually an incorrect statement and I'm going to show you why while this viola contains many different organisms including free living organisms, parasitic organisms, predatory flagellating and even photosynthetic organisms. So it is not a group that is made up by only parasitic organisms. This is why this answer choice is going to be the incorrect one and we're going to highlight as the final answer to our problem. I really hope this video helped you, and I hope to see you on the next one.
