<u>Answer</u>:

Pathogen infection result in the occurrence of fevers in a host because B: Pyrogens produced by the pathogen alter the host thermostat.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Infection occurs when virus or bacteria enters our body. They can enter through eyes, mouth, nose or even skin. Then, they multiply very rapidly and crowd the host's tissues and causes disrupt in the normal functioning of the host's body.  

Certain infections may lead to production of a chemical called pyrogens, which effect the thermostat setting of Hypothalamus, which  is a small region of the brain, and elevates the temperature of the body and causes fever.

What is the function of the translocon in co-translational translocation of a membrane-bound protein?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The translocon (commonly known as a translocator or translocation channel) is a complex of proteins associated with the translocation of polypeptides across membranes.[1] In eukaryotes the term translocon most commonly refers to the complex that transports nascent polypeptides with a targeting signal sequence into the interior (cisternal or lumenal) space of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) from the cytosol. This translocation process requires the protein to cross a hydrophobic lipid bilayer. The same complex is also used to integrate nascent proteins into the membrane itself (membrane proteins). In prokaryotes, a similar protein complex transports polypeptides across the plasma membrane or integrates membrane proteins.[2] Bacterial pathogens can also assemble other translocons in their host membranes, allowing them to export virulence factors into their target cells.[3]
