Answer:
C. Mannose receptor
Explanation:
They are soluble receptors used by macrophages to aid phagocytosis. They are not associated with the phagocyte membrane and thus helps the macrophages to act on cells without getting in contact with the membrane
Answer:
<em>The correct option is B) Freshwater snails and small fish</em>
Explanation:
As we can see from the food web, the fresh water snails and the small fishes both feed on algae and water plants as their source of food hence, both these organisms feed on the same food.
Other options, like option C, is not correct because water boatman and water plants do not feed on the same sources. Water boatman feeds on reeds whereas water plants do not. Water plants will make their own food.
Lets understand the given passage.
An ecologist <u>observes that the diet of a bird species consists primarily of large grass seeds</u> (as opposed to smaller grass seeds or the seeds of other herbaceous plants found in the area).
<u>He hypothesizes that the birds are choosing the larger seeds because they have a higher concentrations of nitrogen than do other types of seeds at the site</u><u>.</u>
<u>To test the hypothesis, the ecologist compares the large grass seeds with the other types of seeds, and the results clearly show that the large grass seeds do indeed have a much higher concentration of nitrogen.</u>
No, he cannot conclude that the birds select the larger grass seeds because of their higher concentrations of nitrogen. The hypothesis testing done by the ecologist is incomplete as he failed to set up a control in the experiment. The control would have been the birds feeding on large seeds that lack or are low on nitrogen content. This will establish a relation between the bird's diet and the size of the seeds and the nitrogen content of the seeds. It could be true that birds do not care about the nitrogen content but simply prefer larger seed sizes.
Another problem associated with his field experiment is the failure in noting the beak sizes of the birds. The beak size and shape enable a bird to break and eat seeds. Larger beaks fail at breaking open smaller seeds. This observation would add bird beak size as another variable of the experiment.

Please mark as brainliest....thanks!!!
Explanation:
An organism can be homozygous dominant if it carries two copies of the same dominant allele, or homozygous recessive if it carries two copies of the same recessive allele. Heterozygous means that an organism has two different alleles of a gene.
A homozygous recessive allele combination contains two recessive alleles and expresses the recessive phenotype. For example, the gene for seed shape in pea plants exists in two forms, one form (or allele) for round seed shape (R) and the other for wrinkled seed shape (r)
