O d) all of above
Enumerate and briefly explain the steps in pathogenesis of COVID-19 with this format:
Entry of the pathogen into the body > Attachment of the pathogen to some tissue(s) within the body > Multiplication of the pathogen > Invasion or spread of the pathogen > Evasion of host defenses > Damage to host tissue(s)

- From the list below, select all the examples that of defense that ARE NOT considered part of the hypersensitive response. Multiple answers possible. high levels of capsaicin in fruits and seeds inhibit the spread of fungi on pepper plants. A caterpillar's digestion of proteins is inhibited after feeding on the leaves of a particular plant. Resistance is dependent on a highly specific interaction between the gene products of both the plant and the pathogen. Cells near the site of infection undergo cell death to limit the spread of the infection. The waxy coating of the leaf epidermis prevents bacteria from entering the leaf interior.
