Solution

The answer is "Activation of C3b". Complement fixation does not result in the activation of C3b. The complement system, including C3b, is activated as a result of complement fixation, not the other way around. The other options - immune adherence, cell lysis, acute local inflammation, and opsonization - are all results of complement fixation.
