The mechanism of action of Bordetella pertussis is to stop the cilia of epithelial cells from beating.
<em>Bordetella pertussis</em> is a pathogenic, gram-negative bacteria. It is the causative agent of highly communicable respiratory disease known as pertussis or whooping cough.
The mechanism of action of Bordetella pertussis:
- This bacterium colonizes the ciliated epithelial cells of the respiratory airways of the host.
- A surface protein on the bacteria called filamentous haemagglutinin adhesin binds to sulfatides on the cilia of epithelial cells. When the bacterium is anchored, it releases tracheal cytotoxin, which prevents the cilia from beating.
- As a result, the cilia in an organism's lungs are unable to sweep out foreign material, and the body reacts by causing the host to cough. When people cough, bacteria are released into the air, where they might spread to other hosts.
- Another toxin called the pertussis toxin, often known as PTx, prevents adenylate cyclase from using ATP to convert to cyclic AMP. This results in over-conversion of ATP to cyclic AMP, which may interfere with cellular signaling systems. As a result, phagocytes are unable to respond to an infection effectively.

<span>The nurse should assess the baby for a brachial plexus injury such as brachial plexus paralysis because this is the number one injury caused by a shoulder dystocia vaginal birth. This type of birth produces pressure and traction on the brachial plexus. Sometimes the injury caused during this type of birth are only temporary, but other times they are permanent.</span>
The answer to the question is c
The simple organisms may be unicellular, consisting of just 1 cell, but more complex organisms are multi-cellular, which means they might have more than one. So the answer you are looking for is A. 1
I hope this helps! :>
