Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: kidneys. The kidneys are the primary organs responsible for excreting drugs from the body through urine. They filter the blood and remove waste products, including drugs, through the process of urine formation. The lungs primarily excrete gases and volatile substances, not drugs. The small intestines are mainly involved in absorption of nutrients, not drug excretion. The spleen is part of the immune system and does not play a direct role in drug excretion.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Agglutination test type Gruber. This is because the Gruber agglutination test is not typically used for the serological identification of Yersinia pestis. The other options (A, B, C) are commonly used methods for serological identification of Y. pestis: A) Precipitation reaction involves the formation of a visible precipitate when Y. pestis antigen reacts with specific antibodies. B) Indirect hemagglutination test detects antibodies against Y. pestis by measuring the agglutination of red blood cells. C) Immunofluorescence test uses fluorescently labeled antibodies to detect specific antigens of Y. pestis. In summary, the Gruber agglutination test is not a standard method for serological identification of Yersinia pestis, unlike the other options provided.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Peroxidase and catalase. Peroxidase and catalase are enzymes that break down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Peroxidase helps in breaking down low levels of hydrogen peroxide, while catalase is crucial for breaking down high levels of hydrogen peroxide efficiently. This process is important for organisms to prevent damage from reactive oxygen species. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect: B: Oxygenase and hydroxylase are enzymes involved in different biochemical reactions and do not break down hydrogen peroxide. C: Cytochrome oxidase and cytochrome B5 are involved in electron transport chain reactions and not in breaking down hydrogen peroxide. D: Oxygenase and catalase are not correct as oxygenase is not involved in hydrogen peroxide breakdown, only catalase is.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: 1. Epstein-Barr virus causes infectious mononucleosis due to primary infection. 2. Certain types of cancer, such as Burkitt lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, are associated with Epstein-Barr virus through oncogenic mechanisms. 3. Chickenpox and shingles are caused by varicella-zoster virus (HHV3). 4. Roseola infantum is caused by human herpesvirus 6 (HHV6). Summary: Choice A is correct as Epstein-Barr virus is linked to infectious mononucleosis and specific cancers. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they are caused by different herpesviruses.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Aminoglycosides primarily inhibit protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit in bacteria. This action leads to misreading of mRNA and ultimately disrupts the translation process, resulting in faulty protein production and bacterial cell death. Incorrect choices: B: Aminoglycosides do not inhibit DNA replication. C: Aminoglycosides do not disrupt cell membrane integrity. D: Aminoglycosides do not inhibit folic acid synthesis. In summary, the correct choice (A) aligns with the known mechanism of action of aminoglycosides, making it the most appropriate answer.
