3How does Salmonella interact with the host immune system?
- ASalmonella employs host immune cells to kill competing microbiota organisms
- BSalmonella kills host immune cells with ROSs

5How does Shigella enter the host cell?
- AIt binds and invade the cell by secreting proteases to digest the host cell membrane
- BIt secretes factors that cause host cell apoptosis
- CIt secretes factors that cause the host cell membrane to be smooth and thin, enabling invasion
