Explanation / Answer

Answer=

1.The statement about innate immunity are incorrect

c.It is found only in vertebrates.

Explaination- All other statements about innate immunity are correct i.e. It is present from the birth,it is an immediate response to infection,it is a nonspecific response to infection.

But ,It is found only in vertebrates is incorrect because is found in vertebrates as wll as invertebrates.

2.Mucus is the part of which defense system

b]Barrier defense.

explaination- Physical barriers are the first line of defense against microorganisms.it includes skin and mucus membrane.

Respiratory & gastrointestinal tracts are lined by mucous membrane.they entraps foreign organisms therefore acts as a barrier.

======================================================================================

3.Toll like receptors

d] Molecular fragments from pathogens that are recognized by our phagocytic cells.

explaination- Toll like receptors are essential components of innate immune system.and one of the key factor involving in recognizing and defending against invading pathogens.

These are transmembrane receptors & are a class of pattern recognition molecules that function as signalling receptors.
