Answer:

The correct answer is - explained below.

Explanation:

Heat shock proteins can help the protein to get back its natural or native form from the misfolded form and if not possible then degrade it, Therefore it is evident that fungi can grow in stress conditions such as heat in the host's environment with help of such overexpressed chaperons which refolds the protein affected in the process.

C. Auris most of the time does not respond to frequently used antifungals, due to overexpressed chaperons.
