Match List I with List II. List I: A. Typhoid; B. Leishmaniasis; C. Ringworm; D. Filariasis. List II: I. Fungus; II. Nematode; III. Protozoa; IV. Bacteria. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Typhoid = Salmonella (Bacteria IV); Leishmaniasis = Leishmania (Protozoa III); Ringworm = Trichophyton (Fungus I); Filariasis = Wuchereria (Nematode/Helminth II)! Result: A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II!
Salmonella typhi is a pathogenic bacterium which causes typhoid fever in human beings (A -> IV). Leishmania is a flagellated protozoan causing visceral leishmaniasis (B -> III).
Many fungi belonging to the genera Microsporum, Trichophyton and Epidermophyton are responsible for ringworms in humans (C -> I). Wuchereria (W. bancrofti and W. malayi), the filarial worms, are nematodes causing slowly developing chronic inflammation in lymphatic vessels of the lower limbs (D -> II).
A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II matches Option (4).
Diagnose every choice: Know exactly why the right option works and why distractors fail.
Mismatches Typhoid with Protozoa and Ringworm with Bacteria.
Mismatches Typhoid with Nematode.
Mismatches Typhoid with Fungus.
Accurately pairs all four human infectious diseases with their corresponding pathogen taxonomical categories.
Assuming Ringworm is caused by a worm (helminth/nematode) due to its name.
"Salmonella typhi is a pathogenic bacterium... Many fungi belonging to genera Microsporum, Trichophyton and Epidermophyton are responsible for ringworms... Wuchereria (W. bancrofti and W. malayi), the filarial worms cause filariasis."
