Answer:

Option A, cilia

Explanation:

Cilia are small micro-structural hairs that are attached on the bronchus of the lungs as projections. These projections have goblet cells which secrete mucus and help in trapping impurities in it thereby allowing microbes and dust free air into the lungs. It protects the lungs from all sort of invasion. Cilia's are composed of proteins and only in case of lung lining are non-moving structures.

Hence, option A is correct

Arthropods invaded land about 100 million years before vertebrates did so. This most clearly implies that
horrorfan [7]

The correct answer is - A) arthropods evolved before vertebrates did.

The arthropods have evolved much earlier than the vertebrates. They were on the scene millions of years before the earliest marine forms of the vertebrates. Because the arthropods were on the scene much earlier, they managed to use the newly formed suitable environment on the land. They were initially marine, but with only slight adaptations they were able to adapt to the terrestrial life.

Once the arthropods got out of the marine environment and started to take up the niches in the terrestrial environment, they experienced a real explosion in their evolution and diversification. They were the dominant land dwellers, and because of the lack of competition, as well as the higher levels of oxygen, they managed to reach pretty big sizes for their standards. Unfortunately for them, their brain capacity is limited to a very low level, so once the competition came on the scene, they were quickly pushed from the throne as the dominant terrestrial creatures.
