Manufacturing vaccine proteins in plants, or "biopharming," has several advantages over using chicken eggs for vaccine productio

n. One advantage is that allergic risks are minimized when vaccines are produced using plants such as tobacco. What is the most likely reason why people with egg allergies may have an allergic reaction when an influenza vaccine is produced using chicken eggs?
A. Vaccine production takes much longer in eggs than it does in plants; proteins that are produced more slowly often take on a shape that causes allergic reactions.
B. Chicken eggs are more likely to become contaminated with unwanted DNA, and the expression of these genes produces proteins that cause allergies.
C. In addition to producing an influenza protein from an inserted gene, the egg cells will produce proteins that cause an allergic reaction in some people.
D. When influenza proteins are produced from egg cells, the proteins are not identical to the proteins produced by the influenza virus, and the new proteins cause allergic reactions.

Answer:

The correct answer is C. In addition to producing an influenza protein from an inserted gene, the egg cells will produce proteins that cause an allergic reaction in some people.

Explanation:

Chicken eggs are full of proteins, in order to carry the embryo successfully. But, when treated genetically, some proteins can start to be produced causing some allergies, combined with the proteins that are already produced that can already cause allergies.
