Answer: A) increased adherence of phagocytes to microorganisms

Explanation:

The phenomenon of phagocytosis can be facilitated by certain substances called opsonins. Particles coated by antibodies or by certain products of the activation complement system adhere to the phagocyte membrane and are internalized more rapidly and intensely than those that are not opsonized. In the macrophage membrane, there are surface molecules, known as receptors, that have an affinity for these opsonins.

What is the basis of Gram staining results?
ladessa [460]

Answer:

The structure of each cell type's wall.

Explanation:

The basis of Gram stain is differentiating cells in two different categories depending on the composition of the cell wall. Gram positives fixate a KI and Crystal Violeta complex in their peptidoglycan wall, but otherwise, gram negatives don't have a thick layer of this, and therefore, when the wash process happens it takes away all the pigments leaving the cells blank for the last pigment (pink).
