Hope this helps ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
A challenge to traditional (pre-1860) ideas about species came from embryology, when it was discovered that embryos of dissimilar organisms, such as sharks and humans, resemble each other. Embryology involves the study of the formation and the development of an embryo and the fetus. It is one type of evidence of evolution such that the embryos of many different kinds of animals, mammals, reptiles, birds, fish among others, are similar showing a common ancestry.
The right answer is D (less responsive to antigens)
It is proven that, after puberty, thymus activity (an organ that is included in the lymphatic system, producing T cells that pick up antigens) decreases and that in adult and aged people the thymus has no role. Work done in humans indicate that in fact the cellularity begins to decline from birth in favor of lymphocyte perivascular spaces and connective and adipose tissue, which leads to a decrease in the capture of antigens.
