Answer;
-Pellicle
Explanation;
-Protist cells may contain a single nucleus or many nuclei; they range in size from microscopic to thousands of meters in area. Protists may have animal-like cell membranes, plant-like cell walls, or may be covered by a pellicle.

Birds, unlike mammals, do not have separate exits for urine and feces. Both waste products are eliminated simultaneously through the cloaca. While mammals excrete nitrogenous wastes mostly in the form of urea, birds convert it to uric acid or guanine, which reduces water loss in comparison.
If multiple researches obtained the same result, it means that the test is highly repeatable ! Highly repeatable results are always very welcomes, because people believe that they have a high validity and high credibility.
So the correct answer is:
<span>a) Discoveries are more credible when they are independently verified</span>
Cell division or reproduction process is called mitosis
