This
is a specific response because in order to fight antigens, white blood cells,
the most important cells of the immune system, must produce large, Y-shaped
proteins known as antibodies to fight these invaders. This is a type of
specific defense (as I have identified antibodies as specific defenses is the
chart above).

Answer: false
Explanation:
Solute is the substance that dissolves
Solvents is the substance that dilutes dissolve in to make a solution eg ocean water is a solution of salt and water
Water being the solvent and salt being the solute
The lateral line system provides tactile sense organs ( that is from cyclostome fishes to amphibians or the aquatic vertebrates) with a sense of distant touch, enabling these animals to sense objects that reflect pressure waves and low-frequency vibration. This system made up of multiple of neuromasts.
Answer:
Class I: Hepaticopsida ( Liverworts)
Class II: Anthocerotopsida ( Hornworts)
Class III: Bryopsida ( Mosses)
Explanation:
Bryophytes are small plants that grows in moist and shady places.They don't attain great heights because of absence of roots, vascular tissues, mechanical tissues and cuticle. They are terrestrial but require external water to complete their life cycle. Hence they are called as the" amphibians" of the animal kingdom.
Class I: Hepaticopsida or Hepaticae
- Gametophytic plant body is either thalloid or foliose. If foliose the lateral appendages are without midrib.
- Rhizoids without septa
- Each cell in the thallus contain many chloroplasts
- Sex organs are embedded in the dorsal surface
- Capsule lacks columella
- Sporophyte may be simple having only one capsule or differentiated into root, seta and capsule
- It has 4 orders: Calobryales, Jungermanniales, Spherocarpales and Marchantiales
Class 2: Anthocerotae or Anthocerotopsids:
- Gametophytic plant body is simple, thalloid;thallus dorsiventra without air chambers shows no internal differentiation of tissues
- Scales are absent in the thallus
- Each cell of the thallus possess a single large chloroplast with a pyrenoid
- Sporophyte is cylindrical only partly dependent on gametophyte for its nourishment. It is differentiated into bulbous foot and cyclindrical capsule. Seta is meristematic.
- Endotheciumforms the sterile central column in the capsule. It have ony one order Anthocerotales
Class 3: Musci or Bryopsida
- Gametophyte is differentiated into prostrate protonema and an erect gametophores
- Gametophore ids foliose, differentiated into axis and lateral appendages like leaves but without midrib.
- Rhizoids are multicellular with oblique septa
- Elaters are absent in the capsule of sporangium
- The sex organs are produced in seperate branches immersed in a group of leaves.
- It has only three orders: Bryales, Andriales and Sphagnales
Bryophytes are used as a packaging material for fragile goods, glasswares etc.Mosses are good source of animal food in rocky and snow clad areas. Decoction prepared by boiling Sphagnum in water is used for the treatment of eye disease.
