Microbes in the digestive system break down food, which allows nutrients to be absorbed by the body’s cells. How will these body cells most likely be affected if an individual suffers from a high fever?

The question are Incomplete but the options are gotten from another website

A. The body cells will swell because an increase in temperature promotes greater water absorption.

B.The body cells will stop absorbing nutrients because the heat melts the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane.

C. The body cells will shrivel because the heat eliminates the chemical gradients on either side of the plasma membrane.

D. The body cells will bring in fewer nutrient molecules because the transport proteins lose their proper shape due to the high temperature.

The correct option is D.

The body cells will bring in fewer nutrient molecules because the transport proteins lose their proper shape due to the high temperature.

Explanation:

This is because high fever is a health condition that lead to increase in body temperature above it's normal. The body cells are able to absorb nutrients at a particular temperature through transport protein but when there is increase in body temperature, the transport protein will be affected by the temperature because they are sensitive to high heat, and they will lose shape. Once they loose shape, their ability to transport nutrients to body cells will reduce drastically.
