Answer:

T and B cells.

Explanation:

Adaptive immunity is the kind of immunity that you acquire after exposure to an antigen (pathogen or vaccine), it involves memory in order to facilitate a quick response if there's a reinfection with the same pathogen.<em> T cells are responsible for the cell-mediated response while the B cells are responsible for the humoral response.</em> Both of these cells are specific to the pathogen's structure, therefore they can kill it directly.

C. Since these are filter feeders they are growing without a natural predator since they are an invasive specie. They feed on the algae in the water and use up almost all of this food supply and makes resources for other native specie (fish) that depend on this food source to die out.

D. Burmese pythons in the Florida everglades are an invasive specie. The prey on endangered species, have no real predator and have voracious feeding habits that affect the numbers in the animal population.  

E. Non- native mongoose was introduced on Jamaica to control the snake population. The problem with introducing a non native specie would be that this new organism is also without a natural predator. After the target specie has been eliminated it may try to feed on other animals in the ecosystem as well.    

F. Invasive species need to adapt to weather conditions and should be able to hunt/acquire its food in order to survive in its new environment.
