Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

Termites are the insects which feed on the wood. Termites are unable to digest the food material that is cellulose on their own which is mediated by the single-celled organism called <em>Trichonympha.  </em>

<em>Trichonympha</em> is the protozoans which live inside the guts of these termites s endosymbionts as these protozoans help digest the cellulose by producing cellulases and in return favored by the termites receiving the shelter and the food.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Contact with infected cats and their feces is the only mode of transmission of Toxoplasma to humans. Contact with infected cats
Mkey [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Toxoplasma is a congenital disease that is characterized by mild muscle aches, tender lymph nodes, etc. and in some immuno-compromised individuals, seizures and coordination loss may occur. I

The disease is caused by a protozoan known as <em>Toxoplasma gondii </em>and its infection is usually by eating foods (usually meats) that contain the cyst of the organism or making contact with cats that are infected in addition to infected mother-baby transmission, especially during pregnancy.

<em>Hence, humans can contract the organism not just by exposure to an infected cat but also by eating meats that contain the cysts of the organism.</em>

6. What are proglottids? What is the scolex?
Nataliya [291]

Explanation:

Proglottids are segments in cestodes that contain bot the male and female reproductive organs. These segments go ahead to make eggs and then dettach form the worm. They are excreted and become agents of infection on the next hoist. Proglittids formed near the neck of the worm are immature while those at the tail end are literally bags of mature eggs.

The scolex is the head of the worm that is attached to the host. It is also the part that ‘sucks’ nutrients from the host. It has hooks that it uses to anchor itself in the host. In some species, rather than hooks, there are suction-cups that use suction for anchorage.
