Fever has the effect of doing all of these except:
A
Speeding up the repair processes
B
Denaturing proteins
C
Canceling the complement cascade
D
None of These
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An important role as endogenous inducer of fever may be reserved to the complement system. On the one hand, this is due to cytokine stimulation by the complement factors C3a and C5a [52, 53].

Detailed explanation-2: -Effectors of the complement system. The function of complement in innate host defense is accomplished through three broad effector pathways; lysis, inflammation, and opsonization/phagocytosis.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three pathways of complement activation: the classical pathway, which is triggered directly by pathogen or indirectly by antibody binding to the pathogen surface; the MB-lectin pathway; and the alternative pathway, which also provides an amplification loop for the other two pathways.
