What is Covid-19
- A.
Virus
- B.
Bacteria
- C.
Fungi
- D.
Prions
Correct Answer
A. VirusExplanation
Covid-19 is caused by a virus, specifically the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It is not caused by bacteria, fungi, or prions. Viruses are small infectious agents that can only replicate inside the cells of living organisms. They are different from bacteria, which are single-celled microorganisms, and fungi, which are eukaryotic organisms. Prions, on the other hand, are misfolded proteins that can cause diseases, but they are not responsible for Covid-19.Rate this question:

How does Corona Virus Transmit?
- A.
When a person sneeze or cough and its droplet through air
- B.
If a person nearby inhales the droplets or touches his face, eyes and nose
- C.
If the distance is less than 1 meter from the infected person
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the aboveExplanation
Corona Virus can transmit through various ways. When an infected person sneezes or coughs, the droplets containing the virus can be released into the air. If a person nearby inhales these droplets or touches their face, eyes, or nose after touching surfaces contaminated by the droplets, they can get infected. This transmission can occur if the distance between the infected person and the other person is less than 1 meter. Therefore, all of the mentioned options are correct ways in which the Corona Virus can transmit.Rate this question:

Which of the following disease is related to Covid-19?
- A.
MERS
- B.
SARS
- C.
Both A & B
- D.
Neither A or B
Correct Answer
C. Both A & BExplanation
Both MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) and SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) are related to Covid-19. Covid-19 is caused by the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which is a member of the same family of viruses as the ones that cause MERS and SARS. All three diseases share similar symptoms and can lead to severe respiratory illness. Therefore, the correct answer is "Both A & B" because both MERS and SARS are related to Covid-19.Rate this question:

Corona Virus is.....
- A.
SS RNA
- B.
DS RNAOption 2
- C.
DS DNA
- D.
SS DNA
Correct Answer
A. SS RNAExplanation
Corona Virus is a type of virus that belongs to the group of positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses (SS RNA). This means that the genetic material of the virus is composed of a single strand of RNA. The RNA acts as a template for the synthesis of viral proteins and is responsible for the replication and transcription of the virus. The other options, DS RNA, DS DNA, and SS DNA, do not accurately describe the genetic material of Corona Virus.Rate this question:

From where Corona virus got its name?
- A.
Due to their crown like projection
- B.
Due to their leaf like projection
- C.
Due to their surface structure
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Due to their crown like projectionExplanation
The name "Corona virus" is derived from the Latin word "corona," which means crown or halo. The virus gets its name because, under a microscope, the virus particles appear to have crown-like projections on their surface. These projections are actually spike proteins that help the virus attach to and invade host cells. Therefore, the correct answer is "Due to their crown-like projection."Rate this question:

Which type of sanitizer is effective against virus?
- A.
Alovera Based
- B.
Alcohol based
- C.
Fragrance Based
- D.
Oil based
Correct Answer
B. Alcohol basedExplanation
Alcohol-based sanitizers are effective against viruses because alcohol has the ability to break down the outer protective layer of the virus, known as the lipid envelope. This lipid envelope is essential for the virus to survive and infect cells. By breaking down this layer, alcohol effectively destroys the virus, making it a highly effective sanitizer against viruses. Aloe vera-based, fragrance-based, and oil-based sanitizers do not have the same virus-killing properties as alcohol.Rate this question:

- A.
At least 30 Cm
- B.
At least 1 Meter
- C.
At least 60 Cm
- D.
At least 2 Meter
Correct Answer
B. At least 1 MeterExplanation
The safe distance to stay away from someone who is infected is at least 1 meter. This distance helps to minimize the risk of respiratory droplets containing the virus from reaching another person. It is recommended to maintain this distance to reduce the chances of contracting the infection.Rate this question:

Can Corona virus spread from pets or Dogs?
- A.
Yes
- B.

What is the best way to avoid spread?
- A.
Sleeping in hot sunlight
- B.
Bathing by boiling water
- C.
Sanitizing or washing hands frequantly
- D.
Self medication
Correct Answer
C. Sanitizing or washing hands frequantlyExplanation
Sanitizing or washing hands frequently is the best way to avoid the spread of germs and diseases. By regularly cleaning our hands with soap and water or using hand sanitizer, we can eliminate harmful bacteria and viruses that we may have come into contact with. This simple practice helps to prevent the transmission of illnesses from person to person and maintain good hygiene. Sleeping in hot sunlight, bathing by boiling water, and self-medication do not have the same level of effectiveness in preventing the spread of germs.Rate this question:

Corona Virus mostly spread by...
- A.
Sneezing
- B.
Contact with positive patient
- C.
By saliva
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the aboveExplanation
The correct answer is "All of the above". The explanation is that the Corona Virus can spread through various means, including sneezing, contact with a positive patient, and through saliva. Sneezing can release respiratory droplets that contain the virus, which can then be inhaled by others. Contact with a positive patient, especially through close physical contact, can also lead to the transmission of the virus. Additionally, the virus can be present in saliva, making it another possible mode of transmission. Therefore, all of these factors contribute to the spread of the Corona Virus.Rate this question:

To stop spread of Corona, we should...
- A.
Avoid roaming outside
- B.
Avoid phone calls
- C.
Avoid eating non vegetarian foods
- D.
Avoid eating fruits
Correct Answer
A. Avoid roaming outsideExplanation
To stop the spread of Corona, it is important to avoid roaming outside. This is because the virus primarily spreads through close contact with infected individuals or by touching contaminated surfaces. By staying at home and avoiding unnecessary outings, the risk of coming into contact with the virus is significantly reduced. This helps in preventing the transmission of the virus and controlling its spread within the community.Rate this question:

Corona can be cure by...
- A.
Mantra
- B.
Eating Garlic
- C.
Religious Monk
- D.
Vaccine
Correct Answer
D. VaccineExplanation
The correct answer is "Vaccine" because vaccines are scientifically proven and widely accepted as the most effective method to prevent and cure diseases. Vaccines stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies and provide immunity against specific diseases, including the coronavirus. While eating garlic or relying on religious practices may have certain health benefits, they do not provide a direct cure for the coronavirus. Therefore, the most reliable and widely accepted solution to cure COVID-19 is through the development and administration of vaccines.Rate this question:
