Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Neisser staining. This method is specifically used to identify cytoplasmic inclusions by staining them with a specific dye that highlights these structures. Neisser staining is designed to selectively target and visualize cytoplasmic inclusions, making it the most appropriate choice for this purpose. Option B: Clett staining, Option C: Ziehl-Nielsen staining, and Option D: Gram staining are not typically used for identifying cytoplasmic inclusions. Clett staining is not a commonly known staining method for this purpose. Ziehl-Nielsen staining is primarily used to detect acid-fast bacteria like Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Gram staining is used to differentiate bacteria into Gram-positive and Gram-negative based on cell wall characteristics. Therefore, these options are not suitable for identifying cytoplasmic inclusions.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Ziehl-Neelsen staining method was applied. 1. Ziehl's solution is used as a primary stain in Ziehl-Neelsen staining for acid-fast organisms like Mycobacterium tuberculosis. 2. Sulfuric acid is used as a decolorizer to remove excess stain. 3. Methylene blue is not part of the Ziehl-Neelsen staining method. 4. Burri's, Gram's, and Peshkov's staining methods are not used for acid-fast staining.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Step 1: Giardiasis is caused by Giardia intestinalis, which is a well-known protozoan parasite. Step 2: Protozoans are single-celled eukaryotic organisms commonly found in water sources. Step 3: Giardia intestinalis infects the intestine, causing symptoms like diarrhea and abdominal cramps. Step 4: Bacteria (Choice B) are prokaryotic organisms, different from protozoans. Step 5: Fungi (Choice C) are also eukaryotic but are not responsible for causing Giardiasis. Step 6: Viruses (Choice D) are not cellular and cannot independently cause Giardiasis. In summary, the correct answer is A (protozoan) because Giardia intestinalis is a protozoan parasite specifically known to cause Giardiasis, while the other choices (Bacterium, Fungus, Virus) do not match the characteristics of the

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because the term "infectious process" refers to all biological processes that occur after the attachment and penetration of microbes into the host organism, regardless of whether there are clinical manifestations. This includes the colonization, multiplication, and spread of the microorganisms within the host. Explanation: A: Incorrect because it only mentions the attachment and penetration of microbes into the microorganism, missing the subsequent processes. C: Incorrect because it is too specific, stating that the penetration of microbes always manifests clinically, which is not always the case. D: Incorrect because there is a correct answer, which is B, as explained above.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Plague. Yersinia pestis is a bacterium that causes plague, a serious infectious disease transmitted through infected fleas or direct contact with infected animals. Yersinia pestis does not cause Cholera (choice A) or AIDS (choice B). Choice D, None of the above, is incorrect as Yersinia pestis is indeed the causative agent of plague.
