    Foot and mouth disease is caused by 

    • A.

      Bacteria

    • B.

      Fungi

    • C.

      Virus

    • D.

      Protozoa

    Correct Answer
    C. Virus
    Explanation
    Foot and mouth disease is caused by a virus. Viruses are microscopic infectious agents that can only replicate inside living cells. They invade and take over the host's cells, using them to reproduce and spread. In the case of foot and mouth disease, the virus specifically targets cloven-hoofed animals such as cattle, pigs, and sheep. It spreads through direct contact with infected animals, contaminated objects, or even through the air. The virus causes painful sores and blisters in the mouth, on the feet, and sometimes on the udder or teats. It can have significant economic impacts due to livestock losses and trade restrictions.

    DNA is stored in a structure called

    • A.

      Chromative

    • B.

      Gens

    • C.

      Chromosomes

    • D.

      Blood

    Correct Answer
    C. Chromosomes
    Explanation
    Chromosomes are the structures in which DNA is stored. They are thread-like structures made up of DNA and proteins, and they contain the genetic information that is passed down from parents to offspring. Chromosomes are located in the nucleus of cells and are responsible for carrying the genes that determine the traits and characteristics of an organism. Therefore, chromosomes are the correct answer for the storage of DNA.

      Hypoo

    • D.

      Hpepi

    Correct Answer
    B. HypHae
    Explanation
    Fungi, except for yeast, are composed of fine threads called hyphae. Hyphae are long, branching structures that make up the body of a fungus. They are responsible for absorbing nutrients from the environment and can intertwine to form a network known as mycelium. This allows fungi to grow and spread through their surroundings.

      VACCINE-4

    Correct Answer
    C. BCG
    Explanation
    BCG stands for Bacillus Calmette-Guérin, which is a vaccine used to prevent tuberculosis (TB). It is derived from a weakened strain of Mycobacterium bovis, a bacterium that causes TB in cattle. When administered to humans, the BCG vaccine stimulates the immune system to develop protection against TB. It is usually given to infants or children in countries where TB is prevalent. The other options mentioned in the question, DPT-hib, polio, and VACCINE-4, are unrelated to TB and do not provide protection against it. Therefore, the correct answer is BCG.

    Explanation
    Pernicious anemia is a type of microcytic anemia caused by a deficiency of vitamin B12. It is characterized by the inability of the body to absorb vitamin B12 from the diet due to the lack of a specific protein called intrinsic factor. This deficiency leads to the production of abnormally small red blood cells, known as microcytic anemia. Pernicious anemia can cause various symptoms, including fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, and pale skin. Cheilosis, which is the inflammation and cracking of the lips, can also be a symptom of pernicious anemia.
