Answer:
b. actively transport Cl- from the ECF to the external environment.
Explanation:
Chloride cells are cells that are found in the gills of teleost fishes which pump large amount of sodium and chloride ions out from the extracellular fluid (ECF) into the sea or environment against a concentration gradient in marine fish.
The opposite of this process occurs in freshwater fishes where the gills of freshwater teleost fish, cause an influx of sodium and chloride ions into the fish from the environment, also against a concentration gradient.
Mechanism of action
Salt water teleost fishes take in large amounts of seawater to decrease osmotic dehydration. The excess of ions derived from seawater is thrown out of the teleost fishes through the chloride cells. These cells employs active transport on the basolateral (internal) surface to diffuse in chloride, which then is pumped out of the apical (external) surface, straight into the surrounding environment. Such mitochondria-rich cells are located in the region of the gill lamellae and filaments of teleost fish.

Answer:
Resident microflora b. may be responsible for opportunistic infections in immunocompromised
Explanation:
It is almost impossible to found these microorganisms in the stomach because of the acidic conditions, most of them are not adapted to this type of environment. Resident microflora is not transient, is actually permanent. However, resident microflora may be responsible for ooportunistic infections in immunocompromised and they can also increase the intensity of the disease produced by that pathogen.
