Maximum Thrift is a method / philosophy that considers the shortest tree (in number of transformation steps) the best hypothesis about the phylogenetic relationship of a given set of terminals. Transformation step is the cost attributed to the change of character state in a given branch of the tree, be it the change from one nucleotide base to another, amino acids, or the color of an animal's iris. The fewer transformations, the shorter the tree, and therefore the more parsimonious. In this method, what programs do is to investigate as many alternative topologies as possible (or all if their array has less than 25 terminals; see more details below) given their character array. Each will be measured, and the shorter (optimal) trees will be retained as the most parsimonious result.

Answer:b; exocytosis
Explanation: leukocytes are amoeboid white blood cells, which are involved in immune response .such response included combating foreign bodies like micro organisms which invade the body.they do this by engulfing the micro organisms and digesting them.
Phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptor mediated endocytosis are the ways in which the cells engulfs the Invaders.
In endocytosis,the membrane of the cell traps the organism by forming an invagination.it then encloses the micro organism and digests it.
Answer:
Competition will occur between organisms in an ecosystem when their niches overlap, they both try to use the same resource and the resource is in short supply. Animals compete for food, water and space to live. Plants compete for light, water, minerals and root space.
