1. Based on the laboratory evidence, baby Kayla was diagnosed with neonatal sepsis caused by
Listeria monocytogenes, which was also found to be the cause of Sandy's illness. When a person
eats food containing Listeria, the bacteria are attacked by phagocytic white blood cell and
engulfed into a phagosome. Listeria is able to stop the fusion of the phagosome with a lysosome
and thereby evade destruction. Listeria in the phagocyte are disseminated in the blood and may
cross the placenta to infect the fetus. Given this information, what evolutionary adaptations allow
Listeria to be virulent? Select all that apply. Stopping the fusion of the phagosome with a
lysosome. Being disseminated in the blood Being engulfed into a phagosome Being able to be
killed by antibiotics Ability to cross the placenta Being able to live on cheese
