Salmonella Are a Genus of Pathogenic Bacteria That Can Cause

Salmonella are a genus of pathogenic bacteria that can cause infections through the gastrointestinal tract.How could Salmonella poisoning be initiated if a human were to ingest these bacteria?

A) The bacteria survive the acidic environment of the stomach and resist lysosomal degradation in macrophages.
B) There is a delay in selection of the population of eosinophils that recognize and fight these bacteria.
C) The bacteria release chemical messengers that make them resistant to phagocytosis.
D) The combination of foods eaten at a meal increases the pH of the stomach sufficiently so that ingested bacteria are not destroyed.
