    Health is state of complete physical, mental, social well being and not merely absence of __________ or __________.
    Solution
    According to WHO, health is defined as a state of complete physical, mental, social well being and not merely absence of any disease or infirmity. Health may also be defined as the ability to adapt and manage physical, mental and social changes throughout the life.
    Thus, the correct answer is 'Disease or infirmity.'
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Statement (SI) : Injections provided against the tetanus is a passive immunization
    Statement (SII) : Injection provided against the tetanus contains preformed antibodies

    Solution
    Passive immunization is the immunity which develops due to the administration of antibodies for protection from the antigens persisting in the body. Tetanus injection is given against the bacteria  Clostridium tetani. It has antibodies administered which fight this infection.
    So, the correct option is 'Statements SI and SII are correct'.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Among the following,  how many vaccines have killed pathogens?                         

     B.C.G., Pertussis, Pneumonia, Rabies, TAB vaccine, Influenza.
    Solution
    • The BCG vaccine contains live bacteria that have been weakened (attenuated).
    • Killed (inactivated) vaccines are made from a protein or other small pieces taken from a virus or bacteria. Whooping cough (pertussis) vaccine is an example. 
    • Pneumococcal vaccine is inactivated or "killed" vaccines and does not contain any live organisms. 
    • The rabies vaccine is made from the killed rabies virus.
    • TAB vaccines and some influenza vaccines are live attenuated vaccines.
    • But some influenza vaccines are inactivated as well.

    So the correct option is 'four'.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Character(s) of acquired immunity is (are) :-
    Solution
    Acquired immunity is developed after birth. It is produced after getting exposed to antigens hence it is specific in nature. Acquired immunity creates immunological memory after an initial response to a specific pathogen, and leads to an enhanced response to subsequent encounters with that pathogen.
    Acquired immunity relies on the capacity of immune cells to distinguish between the body's own cells and unwanted invaders. The host's cells express "self" antigens. These antigens are different from those on the surface of bacteria or on the surface of virus-infected host cells ("non-self" or "foreign" antigens).
    So, the correct option is 'All of the above'.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Match the correct combination.
    Solution
    Filariasis is caused by 'Wuchereria bancrofti'.
  • Question 6

    THC (tetra hydro cannabinol) is the active ingredient of all the following, except.
    Solution
    • Hashish, ganja, and marijuana all three of this psychoactive drug obtained from the same plant ie Hemp ( Cannabis sativa).
    • Marijuana is the dried flower and the leaves of the female plant of cannabis. 
    Hashish is also obtained from the cannabis plant but it is a more concentrated version of it. The Cannabis flower and leaves that fall off the plant are made into a ball and pressed with a knife and dried and then can be consumed orally or smoked.
    • Ganja is simply the leaves of the cannabis plants that are smoked.
    All of the above three drugs have tetra hydro cannabinol as their active ingredients.
    • Mescaline is a hallucinogenic drug obtained from the plants of peyote cactus ( Lophophora Williams) with 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine as the active ingredient.

    Therefore the correct answer is option C

    Solution
    Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a disease caused by HIV in which a person's immunity is badly damaged such that any disease may effect his or her health adversely resulting in appreciable effect on the overall  life expectancy of that person.

    Hence, 'Only I' is correct.

    Solution
    • Autoimmune disease is a condition where the immune system attacks its own body. In autoimmune diseases, the immune system produces antibodies that attack normal tissues and cells of the body.
