Yes, Botulism is a rare and potentially fatal paralytic illness caused by a toxin produced by the Clostridium botulinum (Gram-positive bacterium). Listeriosis is a bacterial infection most commonly caused by Listeria monocytogenes, (Gram-positive bacterium).

Yes, it is correct. Rabies virus is a neurotropic virus that causes rabies in humans and animals. These viruses are enveloped and have a single stranded RNA genome with negative-sense. Dengue virus single stranded RNA virus of the family Flaviviridae. Poliovirus is composed of an RNA genome and a protein capsid. The genome is a single-stranded positive-sense RNA genome.

This option is correct because this set of diseases is caused by the different types of harmful viruses and mainly affects the human brain.

Serum hepatitis or Hepatitis B is an infectious illness of the liver caused by the hepatitis B virus. Hepatitis B virus is a DNA virus and is enveloped. The DNA is only partly double stranded and forms a circle of around 3,200 bases.

Yes, it is the correct answer. The clap is a common human sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Syphilis is a human sexually transmitted infection caused by bacterium Treponema pallidum. Chlamydia infection is a common sexually transmitted infection in humans caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis.

Pneumococcal pneumonia is a lung infection caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, a Gram-positive coccus bacterium.

Yes, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a viral respiratory disease caused by the SARS coronavirus.

Yes, it is the correct answer. Varicella disease (Chickenpox) is caused by the varicella zoster virus (VZV), an enveloped double-stranded DNA virus. Red plague or Smallpox is caused by the variola virus, a double stranded DNA virus of the Poxviridae family.

Yes, it is correct. Anthrax is an infectious disease caused by the Gram-positive, spore-forming rod-shaped bacterium Bacillus anthracis. Tetanus is an infectious disease caused by the anaerobic Gram-positive, spore-forming bacterium Clostridium tetani.

Yes, it is correct. Dumdum fever is caused by Leishmania donovani and transmitted by the bite of the sand fly. African trypanosomiasis (also known as sleeping sickness) is caused by Trypanosoma brucei and transmitted by the tse-tse fly. Epidemic louse - borne typhus is caused by Rickettsia prowazekii and transmitted by the human body louse (Pediculus humanus corporis). Malaria is a mosquito - borne infectious disease of humans and other animals caused by parasites of the Plasmodium spp.

Yes, it is the correct answer. A is correct whereas R is incorrect.  Flavr Savr, a genetically modified tomato, was the first commercially grown genetically engineered food to be granted a license for human consumption. Flavr Savr tomatoes were developed using recombinant DNA techniques to express the trait of delayed softening of tomato fruit.

Amoxicillin act by disrupting the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls.

Necator americanus is a species of the worm genus Necator. It is a parasitic nematode worm and commonly known as Old World hookworm. Threadworm (Enterobius gregorii) is a small parasitic worm that can live inside the human lower intestine. Caenorhabditis elegans is the giant roundworm of humans, belonging to the phylum Nematoda. The human whipworm (Trichuris suis) is the third most common roundworm found in humans.

Correct order of various steps of Variable Number of Tandem Repeats (VNTR) technique is: (i) → (iii) → (ii) → (v) → (iv) → (vi) Isolation of DNA → digestion of DNA by restriction endonucleases → separation of DNA fragments by electrophoresis → transferring (blotting) of separated DNA fragments to synthetic membranes, such as nitrocellulose or nylon → hybridisation using labelled VNTR probe → detection of hybridised DNA fragments by autoradiography.

Yes, it is the correct answer. A is correct whereas R is incorrect Zinc-finger nucleases are artificial restriction enzymes obtained by fusing a zinc finger DNA-binding domain to a DNA-cleavage domain. The DNA-binding domains of individual ZFNs typically contain between three and six individual zinc finger repeats and can each recognize between 9 and 18 base pairs.
