Correct answer: B). Phylogentic system of classification

The scientist will use the phylogenetic system of classification. As is uses evolutionary relationship for classifying an organism. The phylogentic relationship between the organism is given by the degree of evolutionary distance. This system names only clades which are a group of organism that is descended from the common ancestor.

Hence, the correct answer would be option B

Answer:

Explanation:

If DNA is not accurately replicated it can lead to mutation. Mutation is a genetic disorder that occur when a change occur and affect the genome of an organism. It can be result in frameshift mutation shifting nucleotide arrangement.

When DNA is not accurately replicated, it could lead to formation of an entirely new protein different from the original which has a different function this could lead to a form of disorder in the offspring. The effect of this disorder depends on it severity.

Energy cannot be produced by fungi and heterotrophic organisms
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

No they cannot

Explanation:

Fungi, which are also heterotrophs as well as other heterotrophic organisms cannot produce their own energy for their own function because they do no make their own food. That is they do not have chloroplasts and therefore obtain energy from autotrophs ( organisms that make their own food for energy)

Select the correctly described examples of host defense mechanisms. Check All That Apply Innate anatomical and physiological bar
deff fn [24]

Answers: examples of host defence mechanism include: Innate anatomical and physiological barriers, Innate cellular and chemical defenses.

Explanation:

The capability of the human body to resist almost all types of organisms or toxins that tend to damage the tissues and organs is known as IMMUNITY. This host defence mechanism can be classified into INNATE or adaptive immunity.

The immunity that results from general processes, rather than from processes directed at specific disease organisms is called the INNATE IMMUNITY. The anatomical and physiological barriers of the innate immunity provides the first line of defence against pathogens. Examples of these barriers of the innate immunity includes:

--> Destruction of swallowed organisms by the low stomach pH and digestive enzymes

--> The vigorous mucociliary clearance mechanisms of the respiratory airways and lungs.

--> Resistance of the skin to invasion by organisms

While examples of innate cellular and chemical defenses include:

--> Phagocytosis of bacteria and other invaders by white blood cells and cells of the tissue macrophage System

--> lysozymes, a mucolytic polysaccharide that attacks bacteria and cause them to dissolute.

--> basic polypeptides which react and inactivate certain types of gram- positive bacteria

-->natural killer lymphocytes that can recognize and destroy foreign and tumor cells.
