Answer:

The correct answer would be d. thymus.

The thymus is a specialized lymphoid organ of an immune system.

It serves as the site for training and maturation of T-lymphocytes or T cells.  

It is composed two identical lobes each containing outer region termed as cortex and inner region termed as medulla.

T-cells are first trained and selected in the cortex region via positive selection. In this, T cells which are able to bind to foreign antigens are selected and rest are degraded.

The selected T cells then move in the medulla region where they are selected by negative selection. In this, the T cells which binds to self-antigens are degraded and rest survive to become functional T cells.

In the models above, you labelled a cell wall and flagellum only on the bacteria cell—not the animal
Zepler [3.9K]
No. animal cells are not as mobile as bacteria, which means they don’t need a flagellum. Animal cells do not need a cell wall- as the cell wall is primarily used to maintain structure, which is needed in photosynthetic plants. please give this brainliest!

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

An experiment that directly test the hypothesis.

Explanation:

Although there is quite a bit missing from Mary's scientific investigation, the thing that sticks out the most is the fact that Mary is missing an experiment. Mary's hypothesis states that people would fall asleep faster if their room color were to be painted blue. To prove that her hypothesis is true, Mary would need to conduct an experiment to see whether or not she was correct.
