Explanation / Answer

Ans. 4 (c) lysing the host cell

Capsulation helps bacteria. It prevents phagocytosis of bacterial cell. Changing antigens is an option for bactera to get rid of antibodies created by immune system. Finally option A suggests that resisting the lysosomal destruction prevents lysing of bacterial cell.
