Question

The imaginary organism Flovis marvo is found in the upper airway of most adults. Its role may change depending on the human host. Make the best match of the correct term to each scenario below. There is just one best match for each scenario, use each choice just one time ("forced match").

                                                           

F. marvo in the airway neither helps nor harms the person.

                                                           

If the airway becomes inflamed from the common cold, F. marvo multiplies more rapidly and now causes death of nearby mucosal cells.

                                                           

F. marvo  synthesizes an enzyme that hydrolyzes secretory IgA in the mucosal barrier.

                                                           

F. marvo can tell when it has reached a large population. In the large population, cells of F. marvo begin to synthesize an enzyme that hydrolyzes the mucus itself.

A.

F. marvo has a virulence factor that lets it avoid neutralization by mucosal antibodies.

B.

Quorum sensing

C.

F. marvo acting as an opportunistic pathogen

D.

F. marvo acting as a commensal organism
