Answer:

A. Type I is part of innate, nonspecific immunity, while type II is part of adaptive, specific immunity.

Explanation:

Type I interferons: Are produced early on during infection and are responsible for activation of the innate immune response, e.g Natural Killer cells.

Type II interferons: Are produced as part of the innate immune response and act as a link between innate immune response and activation of the adaptive immune response.

The sporophyte of what plant group consists of evenly forking photosynthetic stems that lack roots and leaves?
Agata [3.3K]

The sporophyte of <u>whisk ferns</u> consists of evenly forking photosynthetic stems that lack roots and leaves.

Whisk ferns are the elementary and simplest vascular plants.

They contain small-sized protuberances which are called ' enations.'

In these plants, a vascular system is present in the center through which the transport of nutrients and other fluids takes place.

Moreover, roots and leaves are absent in these plants and are composed of forklike stems.

To put it simply, these plants have hair-like structures that are part of the rhizomes. These structures are called rhizoids.

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The answer is ecosystem!

I like to think of an ecosystem as a web. Webs spun by spiders are often very intricate and unique. If you were to cut out a piece of a web you would lose the overall stability. JUST like a ecosystem. Ecosystems are very fragile yet beautiful and unique!

I hope this helps!
