A Clinical Laboratory Researcher Has Discovered New Strain of Bacteria

Question 7

Multiple Choice

A clinical laboratory researcher has discovered new strain of bacteria that is a potential health threat.What steps would the researcher need to take in order to develop a complement system that will be useful against the new strain of bacteria?


A) The researcher needs to develop a complement protein that will form a membrane attack complex on the bacterial cell membrane.The membrane attack complex will allow fluids and salts to enter the cell which causes the cell to lysis.
B) The researcher needs to develop a complement fatty acid that will form a membrane attack complex on the bacterial cell membrane.The membrane attack complex will allow fluids and salts to enter the cell which causes the cell to lysis.
C)
The researcher needs to develop a complement protein that will form a membrane attack complex on the bacterial cell membrane that will cause the cell membrane to disintegrate.This will make the bacteria nonfunctional.
D) The researcher needs to develop a complement protein that will attract natural killer cells to the site of the bacterial infection.The natural killer cells will enter the bacterial cells causing it to lysis.
E) The researcher needs to develop a complement protein that will attach attack antigens to the bacterial cell membranE.This will make the bacterial cell noticeable to T cells which will migrate to the site of the infection and destroy the bacteria.
