The correct option is C. <u>Fever </u> occurs when the innate immune system is attempting to flush a specific area with phagocytes.
Explanation:
Phagocytes can be described as components of the immune system that attack foreign antigens. Fever causes some kinds of immune cells to fight better. A fever is generally caused when an enormous number of phagocytes are transported to an area to fight pathogens. The hypothalamus is part of the brain that determines the regulation of the body temperature. It also plays an active role in generating fevers at inflammation sites.
