Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

Lymphatic filariasis is caused by

A
Wuchereria

B
Ascaris

C
Taenia

D
Fasciola

Solution

Lymphatic filariasis, also known as elephantiasis is a human disease caused by parasitic worms such as Wuchereria bancrofti (most common), Brugia malayi, and Brugia timori. Symptoms include severe swelling in the arms, legs, breasts, or genitals. The worms are spread by the bites of infected mosquitoes (such as female Culex).
So, the correct answer is 'Wuchereria'.
Question 2

After entering T-cell, HIV first forms

A
m RNA

B
ss DNA

C
ds DNA

D
ds RNA

Solution

Solution:
Answer B: ss DNA(single stranded DNA)
HIV virus attaches to the T helper cells; then fuses with it, take control of DNA, replicates itself and releases move HIV in to blood.
Question 3

A person is suffering from frequent episodes of nasal discharge ,nesal congestion , reddening of eyes and watery eyes.These are symptoms are

A
Bronchial carcinoma

B
Rhinitis

C
Bronchitis

D
Cyanosis

Solution

Allergic rhinitis, also known as hay fever is a type of inflammation in the nose which occurs when the immune system hypersensitizes to allergens in the air. Signs and symptoms include nasal discharge, nasal congestion, sneezing; red, itchy, and watery eyes and swelling around the eyes. Allergic rhinitis is typically triggered by environmental allergens such as pollen, pet hair, dust etc..
So, the correct answer is 'Rhinitis'.
Question 4
1 / -0

Use of antihistamines and steroid give a quick relief from

A
Nausea

B
Headache

C
Allergy

D
Cough
Solution
- Antihistamines are drugs which are used to treat allergic rhinitis and other allergies. Antihistamines can give relief when a person has nasal congestion, sneezing, or hives because of pollen, dust mites, or animal allergy. Histamine is mostly responsible for allergic reactions. Antihistamines block the action of histamines.
- A steroid is a biologically active organic compound. Steroids such as corticosteroids are used in the treatment of allergic reactions by reducing inflammation associated with allergies. They prevent and treat nasal stuffiness, sneezing, and itchy, runny nose due to seasonal or year-round allergies. They can also decrease inflammation and swelling from other types of allergic reactions
- So, the correct answer is 'Allergy'.
Question 5
1 / -0

Which of the following is an autoimmune disease?

A
Graves disease

B
Type 1 diabetes

C
Rheumatoid arthritis

D
All of the above
Solution
- Graves' disease, also known as toxic diffuse goitre, is an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. It is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism. Symptoms include irritability, muscle weakness, sleeping problems, a fast heartbeat, poor tolerance of heat, diarrhoea, and unintentional weight loss.
- Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease as in this condition the immune system destroys the body's own insulin-making cells present in the pancreas. This results in the dysregulation of blood-sugar level.
- Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term autoimmune disorder that primarily affects joints. It typically results in warm, swollen, and painful joints. Pain and stiffness often worsen following rest.
So, the correct answer is 'All of the above'.

Question 6

1 / -0

	Column I		Column II
a	Natural active	p	Immunity level oped by heredity
b	Artificial passive	q	From mother to fetus through the placenta
c	Artificial active	r	Injection of antiserum to travelers
d	Natural passive	s	Fighting infection naturally
		t	Induced by vaccination

Match the column and choose the correct combination

a-s,b-t,c-q,d-r

a-p,b-q,c-r,d-t

a-t,b-s,c-r,d-p

a-s,b-r,c-t,d-q

Solution

Naturally acquired active immunity occurs when a person is exposed to a live pathogen and develops a primary immune response against infection, which leads to immunological memory.
Artificially-acquired passive immunity is an immediate, but short-term immunization provided by the injection of antibodies, such as gamma globulin, that are not produced by the recipient's cells. These antibodies are developed in animals and then injected into another individual who has a chance to get the infection (such as travelers going to a particular infection site).
Artificially acquired active immunity can be induced by a vaccine, a substance that contains antigen. A vaccine stimulates a primary response against the antigen without causing symptoms of the disease.
Naturally acquired passive immunity occurs during pregnancy, in which certain antibodies are passed from the maternal blood into the fetal bloodstream in the form of IgG through the placenta.

So, the correct answer is 'D'.

Question 7
1 / -0

Wuchereria is found in

A
Lungs

B
Lymph nodes

C
Eye

D
Gonads

Solution

Wuchereria bancrofti is a human parasitic roundworm that is the major cause of lymphatic filariasis. The adult parasites reside in the lymphatics (lymph glands and lymph nodes) of the human host. They are found mostly in the afferent lymphatic channels of the lymph glands in the lower part of the body. Wuchereria is spread by a variety of mosquito vector species.
So, the correct answer is 'Lymph nodes'.
Question 8
1 / -0

Piperax and Piperazine adipate are medicines for treating _________.

A
Fascioliasis

B
Taeniasis

C
Ascariasis

D
Schistosomiasis

Solution

Piperax and Piperazine adipate belong to anthelmintics that are used in the treatment of common roundworms (ascariasis).
Question 9
1 / -0

The secondary metabolite obtained from Catharanthus roseus is

A
Vincristine

B
Anthocyanin

C
Menthol

D
Nicotine.
Question 10
1 / -0

Vector for ascariasis is ______________.

A
Female Culex

B
Female Anopheles

C
Housefly

D
None of these

Solution

Ascariasis is caused by the parasitic roundworm Ascaris lumbricoides.
