Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Modular organisms are characterized by the repetition of similar units within their structure, such as branches in trees or polyps in corals. Creosote bushes, Streptococcus bacteria, and Quercus spp. (oak trees) all exhibit modular growth patterns to some extent. Baetis spp. (mayflies), however, are not considered modular organisms as they do not exhibit this repetitive modular structure; they have a more fixed and determinate body plan typical of most insects.
