The correct Answer is:
To determine how many of the given organisms have had their genomes completely sequenced, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: List the Organisms The organisms provided in the question are: 1. Arabidopsis 2. Caenorhabditis 3. Sunflower 4. Drosophila 5. Honey bee 6. Rice 7. Wheat 8. Human 9. Yeast ### Step 2: Identify the Organisms with Sequenced Genomes Next, we need to identify which of these organisms have had their genomes completely sequenced. Based on scientific literature and genome databases, we know that: - **Arabidopsis thaliana** (a model plant) - Genome sequenced - **Caenorhabditis elegans** (a nematode) - Genome sequenced - **Sunflower** - Genome not completely sequenced - **Drosophila melanogaster** (fruit fly) - Genome sequenced - **Honey bee** - Genome not completely sequenced - **Rice** (Oryza sativa) - Genome sequenced - **Wheat** - Genome not completely sequenced - **Human** (Homo sapiens) - Genome sequenced - **Yeast** (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) - Genome sequenced ### Step 3: Count the Organisms with Sequenced Genomes Now, we count the organisms from the list that have had their genomes completely sequenced: 1. Arabidopsis 2. Caenorhabditis 3. Drosophila 4. Rice 5. Human 6. Yeast This gives us a total of **6 organisms** whose genomes have been completely sequenced. ### Final Answer The total number of organisms from the list that have had their genomes completely sequenced is **6**. ---
