For family Togaviridae is true that

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Step 1: Togaviridae is a family of viruses known to have non-segmented (+)ssRNA as their genetic material. Step 2: The positive sense RNA means that the viral RNA can be directly translated into proteins by host machinery. Step 3: This RNA genome acts as mRNA, allowing for immediate translation of viral proteins. Step 4: Therefore, choice C is correct as it accurately describes the genetic nature of Togaviridae. Summary: - Choice A is incorrect because Togaviridae viruses do not have helical symmetry. - Choice B is incorrect because Togaviridae viruses do not have non-segmented (-)dsRNA. - Choice D is incorrect because Togaviridae viruses are enveloped viruses.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: After the transfer of the F plasmid from the donor to the recipient cell, the correct answer is D. This is because the F plasmid carries genes for conjugation, allowing the recipient cell to become F+ (containing the F plasmid). The donor cell remains F. Choice A is incorrect as the outcome can be predicted based on the transfer of the F plasmid. Choice B is incorrect because the donor cell does not become F after transferring the F plasmid. Choice C is incorrect as only the recipient cell becomes F+, not both cells.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Sporozoites. Sporozoites are the infective stage of Plasmodium for the female Anopheles mosquito. Here's the rationale: After being transmitted to a human host through a mosquito bite, the sporozoites travel to the liver where they mature and reproduce asexually as merozoites (not the infective stage for mosquitoes). The merozoites then infect red blood cells, leading to symptoms like fever, headache, and shivering. During the blood stage, some merozoites develop into male and female gametocytes, which are not infective to mosquitoes. When a mosquito bites an infected person, it ingests gametocytes, which then develop into male and female gametes and fuse to form ookinetes. Ookinetes develop into oocysts in the mosquito's gut, releasing sporozoites that migrate to the salivary glands, ready to infect a new human host when the mosquito bites

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because fires from flammable metals require specialized Class D fire extinguishers designed to extinguish these unique types of fires. Class A, B, and C fire extinguishers are not suitable for flammable metal fires as they are designed for different types of materials and fire classes. Class A extinguishers are for ordinary combustibles, Class B for flammable liquids, and Class C for electrical fires. Therefore, Class D fire extinguishers are specifically designed for flammable metal fires, making them the correct choice for this scenario.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because viral multiplication in cell culture can be detected by observing a specific cytopathic effect (A) caused by viral infection in cells and by using an immunofluorescence detection method (B) to visualize viral antigens within the cells. Choice C, the characteristic type of viral colonies, is incorrect as viral multiplication is not typically detected by observing viral colonies in cell culture. Option D is the correct choice as both A and B methods are commonly used to detect viral multiplication in cell culture.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Osmosis is the correct answer because it is the process by which water molecules move across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. This movement occurs passively, driven by the concentration gradient. Facilitated diffusion (B) involves the transport of specific molecules with the help of carrier proteins, not water. Phagocytosis (C) is a process where cells engulf solid particles, not water molecules. Exocytosis (D) is the process of releasing substances from a cell by fusion of vesicles with the cell membrane, not the transport of water across the membrane.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Catalase. Catalase is the enzyme responsible for breaking down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. This process helps protect the bacteria from oxidative damage caused by hydrogen peroxide. Amylase (A), Lipase (C), and Protease (D) are enzymes that are not involved in breaking down hydrogen peroxide. Amylase is involved in breaking down starch, Lipase breaks down lipids, and Protease breaks down proteins. Therefore, they are not the correct enzymes for the given question.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because isolating a defined microorganism in pure culture involves obtaining a single, distinct colony on solid media. This ensures that only one type of microorganism is present in the culture, preventing contamination. Liquid media can harbor multiple organisms, making it challenging to isolate a specific microorganism. Therefore, choice A is incorrect. Choice B is also incorrect as liquid nutrient media does not provide the necessary isolation required for pure culture. Choice D is incorrect because isolating from single colonies on solid media allows for the pure culture of the defined microorganism.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: All are correct. Candida albicans can cause skin infections such as candidiasis. Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes are common bacteria that can also cause skin infections. Therefore, choice B is correct as all three microorganisms listed can cause skin infections. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because individually, each of the microorganisms listed can cause skin infections.
