Question

when an organism ingests (eats) another organism which has been infected with a virulent bacteria, what will most likely happen to that organism? a. nothing will happen b. the organism will become ill c. the organism will inherit the illness d. the organism will produce antibodies

Explanation:

When an organism ingests another organism infected with a virulent bacteria, the ingesting organism is likely to become ill as the bacteria can infect and cause damage to its cells and tissues. Inheriting illness is not how it spreads through ingestion, and producing antibodies is a later - stage immune response after getting infected, not an immediate outcome.

Answer:

B. The organism will become ill
