Answer:

c. the cost to growth of allocating resources to defense

d. consistent fitness benefits of high allocations to defense

Explanation:

In order to ensure survival by  escape of  grazing and browsing by herbivores (and insects) plant usually adopt different defence mechanisms.This forms the basis for the optimum defence hypothesis .

The basic idea of the hypothesis is that the type   of  defence that an organism e.g plant  will adopt  against an herbivore depends on its fitness, and since this involve expenditure of energy it will be expensive for the organism to afford and maintain.

Cell wall - Adds structural support to the cell. Holds the cells together
Cell membrane - Serves as a barrier to the cell and allows more nutrient and molecules to move in and out of the cell without letting things that can harm the cell in. 
Outer membrane - Serves the same basic functions a the cell membrane. (Depending on how complicated the class your in is, I would visit this website for more information... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_outer_membrane )
Pili - Help the cell move and attach the bacteria to surfaces are other cells. 
DNA - Contains the genetic instructions on what the cell can physically do, operate, and reproduce. 
Flagellum - Helps the cell move. It kind of acts like a propeller for the cell so that it can move around.
