The correct answer is Option (B) Habituation.

Crocodiles ignore the birds which clean their teeth instead of eating them. This is an example of habituation.

<h3>Why do crocodiles show habituation toward the birds which clean their teeth?</h3>

It's an evolutionary phenomenon that when a bird used to sit in a crocodile’s mouth, the crocodile didn't eat it, instead, the crocodile used to allow the bird to sit in the mouth and clean the teeth of the crocodile so that they can alive longer, whereas the birds could get the free food from the crocodile’s mouth. It is an example of the symbiotic relationship between the two.

So, the same is the case today, crocodiles are habituated to the fact that the birds will clean their teeth so instead of eating them, these birds are being ignored by the crocodiles.

What is the medical term for a specific protein evoked by an antigen?
Shkiper50 [21]
An antigen triggers a response from the immune system and an antibody is produced. All antibodies are immunoglobulins, therefore, the correct answer is immunoglobulin. More specifically, an immunoglobulin is a protein produced by plasma cells to fight and neutralize pathogens. To do so, the immunoglobulin has a specific region which is complementary to a specific region of the antigen. Immunoglobulin's mechanism of action is to bind to the pathogen and either block its action or trigger a response of other cells of the immune system.
