The process of taking in solid particles by a cell is called: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Explanation:
Gregor Mendel, through his pea plant experiments, established the fundamental laws of inheritance, earning him the title 'father of genetics'. Edward Jenner pioneered the concept of vaccination by developing the first successful smallpox vaccine using cowpox material. Charles Darwin proposed the theory of evolution by natural selection, not the cell theory (proposed by Schleiden and Schwann). Thus, statements 1 and 2 are correct.

Explanation:
In eukaryotes, complete oxidation of one glucose molecule via glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain yields a net of about 36-38 ATP molecules (depending on shuttle systems). Glycolysis yields 2 ATP, Krebs 2 ATP, and oxidative phosphorylation 32-34 ATP. This is much higher than anaerobic respiration (2 ATP).

Explanation:
Lichens are a mutualistic association between an alga (or cyanobacterium) and a fungus. The alga photosynthesizes, providing food; the fungus provides shelter, water, and minerals. Both benefit. Tapeworm is parasitism, barnacles on whales commensalism (or sometimes parasitism depending on effect), mosquito blood-sucking is parasitism.
