Answer:

Scarlet fever or scarlatina is a bacterial infection usually caused by  <em>Streptococcus pyogenes</em><em>.</em>

This bacteria can be found in the mouth and nasal passage of human beings.

They produce poison or toxins which produce bright red rashes on the body.

Other symptoms may include Pastia's lines, strawberry tongue, fever, chills, red, sore and swollen throats, et cetera.

The infection can spread when a healthy individual comes in direct contact with infected droplets, mouth, nose, or eyes of an infected individual.

Virulence factors include lipoteichoic acid and M protein (attachment), hyaluronic acid capsule (inhibits phagocytosis), erythrogenic toxins (causes rash) et cetera.

The treatment is usually done with the help of antibiotics and other medicines to treat symptoms.

Presently, there is no vaccine available for this fever.

Thus, the correct statements would be:

  • caused by <em>Streptococcus pyogenes</em>.
  • most common mode of transmission is droplet or direct contact
  • virulence is due to the action of erythrogenic toxin
  • it is characterized by a vesicular rash

How are the dna replication products visualized during the sanger method of dna sequencing?.
n200080 [17]

The DNA replication products visualized during the sanger method of DNA sequencing are observed in which nucleotides are added.

Sanger sequencing is based on the process of DNA replication. A scientist creates a copy of his DNA strand. Then observe which nucleotides have been added. This way you can see the sequence of nucleotides. A laser excites the fluorescent labels in each band and a computer detects the resulting light.

Sanger sequencing produces extension products of various lengths ending in dideoxynucleotides at the 3' ends. Extension products are separated by capillary electrophoresis or CE. Molecules are injected by an electric current into a long glass capillary filled with gel polymer. Selective incorporation of chain-terminating dideoxynucleotides by DNA polymerases during in vitro DNA replication.
