Explanation:
B cells and T cells use different biological weapons to attack the pathogen. The first secrete proteins called antibodies, which are distributed via the blood or the exposed surfaces to the environment, such as mucous. Antibodies are glycoproteins that circulate in the bloodstream looking for antigens that cause some type of damage to the body. Antibodies recognize and neutralize pathogens in a highly efficient way. Once the antibodies are produced, they remain circulating in the bloodstream for several months, which generates immunity for a long period of time to a certain antigen, in other words, they are capable of recognizing other molecules (antigens) in a very specific way and forming stable complexes with them (immune complexes). Its appearance in plasma is part of the adaptive immune response, in what is known as a specific humoral response, constituting a very effective defense against pathogens.
Answer: Fungi are microscopic heterotrophic living organisms that grow as long threads called hyphae. In terms of their function, they can be divided into-
Parasitic fungus that obtains nutrients from living host while harming it, mutualistic fungus that obtains nutrients and inturn provides benefit provides to the host, and saprophytic fungus that are mainly classified as decomposers.
Thus, correct match is as-
A) Parasitic fungus- 4) lives within the blood of another organism and causes disease
B) Mutualistic fungus - 5) lives around the roots of a tree and provides nutrients to the tree
C) Saprophytic fungus- 2) lives in a marsh environment and aids in biodegradation.
