B. The dog’s saliva must prevent the growth of infection-causing bacteria.


C. I’ll obtain a bacterial culture and grow the same kind of bacteria in two identical culture dishes. Once the bacteria start growing, I’ll add dog saliva to only one of the dishes and leave the other alone. I’ll cover both dishes. Then I’ll observe what happens each day for a week.
