Answer:
Legionella tends to form biofilms and infect other microbial cells as intracellular pathogens.
Explanation:
The Legionella genus of the bacteria is a group of gram-negative bacteria that can cause legionnaires disease.
The<em> Legionella pneumophila</em> is a species of this genus which can cause legion pneumonia. The bacteria lives in the freshwater and is resistant to chemical treatment like chlorine and the biocide treatment.
The reason for this resistance is since this species form a polysaccharide layer around the colony of the bacteria which is resistant to these treatments and also the bacteria prove parasitic to the protozoans which feed on these bacteria.
Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
<u>Answer:</u>
The alternative complement pathway kill the invading microbial cell by enhancing the phagocytosis of microbes by host cells.
Option: (C)
<u>Explanation:</u>
-
The complement pathway is an immune system which destroys the microbes with protein complex and phagocytes.
- It has tree types namely 'classical, alternative and lectin pathway'.
-
In alternative complement pathway complex
protein complex kills the microbes in two ways,
- It attaches to the cell wall of the bacteria and kills by lysis
- Stimulates the formation of "Membrane Attack Complex(MAC)" which causes lysis of the bacteria.
