In southern copperhead snake venom, you'll find a protein called a disintegrin. Disintegrins bind to a class of membrane receptors called integrins. Platelets use integrin receptors to aggregate at a site of tissue damage

What effect do you think disintegrin has on the snake's prey? A) After the snake bites its prey, the molecule helps in wound healing. B) The molecule helps kill the snake's prey by producing large clots that cause heart attacks and strokes. C) The molecule interferes with clot formation so the venom can travel through the body more efficiently. D) By binding to the platelets, the molecule increases the formation of fibrin.
