Answer:

(D). The Peyer’s patches can release B cells to destroy Listeria.

Explanation:

Payer's patches represent aggregated lymphatic tissue present in lowest part of small intestine. The main function of Payer's patches is to prevent growth of pathogens, such as bacteria in gut.

B lymphocytes present in Payer's patches produce antibodies against pathogens or their components and help other immune cells, such as T cells or macrophages to kill them.

Hence, Payer's patches of Christopher would fight with listeria infection. Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
