Opsonization.
Explanation:
- Complement proteins and antibodies coat a microorganism and provide binding sites, enabling macrophages and neutrophils to phagocytize the organism. This phenomenon is termed opsonization.
Opsonization occurs as a result of binding of a molecule called opsonin to the epitope of a pathogen.
Opsonization helps the immune system to select and kill the infected cells instead of targeting all the cells in general.
Plant cells have chloroplasts. They also have cell walls. They are also rectangular. Animal cells are more round and they do not have chloroplasts or cell walls.Animal cells also have small vacuoles.While plant cells have a one large vacuole.

Answer:
Primary succession is one type of the ecological succession which takes place on the land devoid of vegetation or barren land.
The species which first flourishes on this barren land are known as pioneer species which includes the species of bryophytes and pteridophytes like lichens and mosses.
These lichens and mosses help breakdown the barren rocks through chemical leaching and help increase the nutrient content. This allows the ferns and small pteridophytes to grow.
Then the area is colonized by the intermediate species which includes herbs, shrubs later trees. These intermediate species help attract the animals and thus help establish the biological community.
Thus, Lichens mosses → herbs→ shrubs →trees.
This zone is called as the zone of aeration. It is present between the earth's surface and the water table, and its main constituents are the soil and rocks. The pores which are present in this zone are partly filled with water, and may mix up with air, causing aeration.
