[#196] The cause of pneumonia disease in animal is (Pneumono cocci), which is a
Correct Answer

(B) Bacterial

Explanation

Solution: The cause of pneumonia disease in animals is (Pneumono cocci), which is a Bacterial. Pneumonia is an inflammation of the pulmonary parenchyma that results in respiratory disturbance. It can be caused by a variety of organisms, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, parasites, and protozoa, as well as by aspiration of vomitus or improperly administered medications. Bacterial pneumonia consists of bronchopneumonia and fibrinous pneumonia and pleuropneumonia as well as caseonecrotic, aspiration, and tuberculous pneumonias. Two major patterns of interstitial pneumonia are recognized in cattle, and verminous pneumonia is associated with Dictyocaulus viviparus infection.

[#197] Mode of transmission of IBR virus is
Correct Answer

(C) Both A and B

Explanation

Solution: Mode of transmission of IBR virus is Venereal and Inhalation. The infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus belongs to the group of herpes viruses. It causes in cattle a severe disease predominantly in the upper respiratory tract. IBR can be transmitted by direct routes (nasal and genital secretions) and by indirect routes (people and equipment). Once animals are infected the virus hides from the immune system in the nervous system meaning that it can never be removed from the body and thus the animal is infected for life.

[#198] Glycosphingolipids and glycoproteins are synthesised in
Correct Answer

(A) Golgi body

Explanation

Solution: Glycosphingolipids and glycoproteins are synthesized in Golgi body. The Golgi body is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm, packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination. It resides at the intersection of the secretory, lysosomal, and endocytic pathways. It is of particular importance in processing proteins for secretion, containing a set of glycosylation enzymes that attach various sugar monomers to proteins as the proteins move through the apparatus.

[#199] The most effective chemical disinfectant to kill FMD virus is
Correct Answer

(C) 2% Sodium hydroxide

Explanation

Solution: The most effective chemical disinfectant to kill FMD virus is 2% Sodium hydroxide. Foot-and-mouth disease virus is the pathogen that causes foot-and-mouth disease. It is a picornavirus, the prototypical member of the genus Aphthovirus. Although common household bleach would be an effective disinfectant for the FMD virus, the recommended concentration (3% sodium hypochlorite).

[#200] Arrange the susceptibility to aflatoxin by domestic animals in descending order
Correct Answer

(A) Rabbit > Pig > Cattle > Sheep > Chicken

Explanation

Solution: Arrange the susceptibility to aflatoxin by domestic animals in descending order as Rabbit > Pig > Cattle > Sheep > Chicken. Aflatoxins are toxins produced by the mold Aspergillus flavus that can grow on pet food ingredients such as corn, peanuts, and other grains. At high levels, aflatoxins can cause illness (aflatoxicosis), liver damage, and death in pets. The susceptibility to aflatoxin by domestic animals is maximum in rabbits, then pigs followed by cattle, sheep and chicken respectively.
