Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis is directly related to its ability toa) produce a powerful toxinb) form endosporesc) produce a polysaccharide capsuled) resist most antimicrobial agentse) live and reproduce inside its host's cells

A and E

Explanation:

Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive bacterium, mobile by means of flagella. CANNOT form capsules and / or endospores; It is a pathogenic bacterium, normally present in the environment. It is capable of living both in the soil and in the cytosol of a eukaryotic cell.

L. monocytogenes can enter host cells through endocytosis, this phagocytic vacuole is rapidly lysed by the listeriolysin O (LLO) toxin produced by the bacteria. Once free in the cytosol, it expresses the genes to acquire the necessary nutrients for intracellular multiplication and spread between cells and this is precisely what allows it to evade the humoral immune response.

all the above is what i would say

no, because those are both different running competitions. while distance runners train their legs and their lungs to run long amounts of time, the sprinters are training their legs and their lungs to give all they have in the little amount of area they need to cover. the brain also plays a huge part in all of this.

the brain is the only thing in your body that sends messages to your body telling you to run. if you are a long distance runner and you have the mind set of a sprinter, you will not get anywhere. if you have a long distance mind set and you have to run 200m in 20 seconds then you will not make it in time.
