Answer:

The correct answer is option b, that is, injection of antibodies to the toxin.

Explanation:

In countries like the United States, the cases of snake bites are very common. The effect of the bite of the snake depends on the fact that whether it is venomous or harmless. Even a bit of a harmless snake can result in allergic reactions. On the other hand, the bite of venomous snakes is considered deadly and needs to be treated as a medical emergency.  

A bite from a poisonous snake can lead to different kinds of symptoms like convulsions, localized pain, and inflammation, paralysis, and nausea. In case, if the severity of the bite is more, that is, if the condition is life-threatening, a doctor may use antivenom. Antivenom is a form of antibodies produced to tackle the symptoms of poisonous snake bites. The administration of antivenom is required to be done as quickly as possible to get the desired result.
