Multicellular fungi share some key traits, including their body structures, growth patterns, and methods for absorbing nutrients. however, although their feeding methods may be similar, fungal species differ markedly in their sources of nutrients, which include both living and dead organisms. as a result, fungi play a variety of roles in ecological communities.

Which is an advantage of having memory cells when a pathogen is encountered for a second time. a) the memory cells are what proliferate into clones of cells in response to the binding of an antigen. b) memory cells are vital to the primary immune response in that they immediately recognize pathogens even at the first encounter. c) memory cells are essentially effector cells that are short lived and attack antigens even without having a receptor specific to that antigen. d) it ensures that more lymphocytes with a receptor specific to a particular antigen will be present than in a host that had never encountered that pathogen.
