  • <em>Alienus hairicus: </em>Mouth opened,<em> </em>hairy
  • <em>Alienus tritoothicus: </em>Mouth opened, not hairy
  • <em>Alienus stripicus: </em>Mouth not opened, horns
  • <em>Alienus bloblicus:  </em>Mouth not opened, No legs
  • <em>Alienus fuzzicus: </em>Mouth not opened, Legs

2) Genus <em>Alienus</em>

3) Morphological characteristics of aliens are used to identify them and to name them.

Explanation:

1) The dichotomous keys give you information about the groups that are being differentiated to correctly identify them. All you need to do is follow the description of the organisms and the numbers where each description drives you. If you observed correctly the organism, you will reach the scientific name, or genus, or any other taxonomic group you are looking for.

2) Taxonomy is the study of different organisms, their classification into categories according to their morphological and molecular characteristics and their evolutionary relationships. A binomial name is assigned to each organism, composed of a genus and the epithet.  

Among all the categories where organisms are classified, we can find the <em>genus</em>, which includes many species that share some common characteristics that are used to group them together.  

In this example, <em>Alienus</em> is the genus of all these aliens species.

3) Morphological characteristics of aliens are used to identify them and to name them.

  • <em>Alienus quadlegicus</em>:  Four-legged alien
  • <em>Alienus hairicus: </em>Hairy alien.
  • <em>Alienus tritoothicus: </em>Alien with three teeth
  • <em>Alienus stripicus:</em> Alien with striped horns
  • <em>Alienus bloblicus:  </em>Alien with no shape. Shapeless mass
  • <em>Alienus fuzzicus: </em>Short fine-haired alien.

Which statement is true regarding monocytes
vodka [1.7K]

Answer: <u>Option C, they digest pathogens</u>

Explanation: Monocytes are involved in the process of digesting pathogens and infected cells, termed as phagocytosis.

Monocytes don't produce antibodies, only B cells can produce antibodies. So, option A and D are incorrect. Also they appear colorless when observed under the microscope. They don't appear granular, so option B is also incorrect.
