Which of the following correctly explains the role of antibiotics in the human body?
They break down damaging toxins created by bacteria. They increase the number of white blood cells in the blood. They rupture the cell wall or prevent protein synthesis in bacteria. They reduce the effects of fever, swelling, and inflammation in the body.
??????????
D should be the correct answer, antibodies tell white blood cells where to attack, they bind to a specific marker called an antigen that is foreign or toxic to the local cell environment. They sort of act like signaling molecules that paints target for the white blood cells. So indirectly they would help the body to reduce attacks from foreign and toxic matter which are exhibited in swelling, fever and inflammation which are actually promoted effects by white blood cells in their attempt to kill foreign matter. Thats what i think
antibiotics are compounds that either kill bacteria or keep them in stasis, but mainly kill bacteria.
