The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding how cyanobacteria differ from bacteria, we will analyze each of the provided statements one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement 1: Complete absence of flagella** - Cyanobacteria are known to lack flagella, which are structures used for movement in many bacteria. This statement is **true**. 2. **Statement 2: Presence of both PS I and PS II** - Cyanobacteria contain both Photosystem I (PS I) and Photosystem II (PS II), which are essential for oxygenic photosynthesis. This statement is also **true**. 3. **Statement 3: Photosynthesis is anoxygenic** - This statement is **false**. Cyanobacteria perform oxygenic photosynthesis, which means they produce oxygen as a byproduct. In contrast, anoxygenic photosynthesis occurs in some other bacteria, where oxygen is not produced. 4. **Statement 4: Carotenes and chlorophylls are present** - Cyanobacteria contain chlorophyll a and various carotenoids, which are pigments that assist in photosynthesis. This statement is **true**. ### Conclusion: From the analysis: - Statements 1, 2, and 4 are true. - Statement 3 is false. Thus, the correct answer is that cyanobacteria differ from bacteria in statements **1, 2, and 4**. ### Final Answer: Cyanobacteria differ from bacteria in: - 1. Complete absence of flagella (True) - 2. Presence of both PS I and PS II (True) - 3. Photosynthesis is anoxygenic (False) - 4. Carotenes and chlorophylls are present (True) **Correct options: 1, 2, 4**
