Amoebiasis

Vedclass · Answer

(B) $1$. Malaria is transmitted by the female Anopheles mosquito,which is an arthropod.$2$. Amoebiasis is caused by Entamoeba histolytica and is transmitted through contaminated food and water (fecal-oral route),not by an arthropod vector.$3$. Filariasis (Elephantiasis) is transmitted by the Culex mosquito,which is an arthropod.$4$. Pneumonia is caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae,which spread through droplets or contact,not by an arthropod vector.$5$. However,in the context of standard biology questions regarding diseases transmitted by vectors,Amoebiasis is the classic example of a non-vector-borne disease,while Pneumonia is a respiratory infection. Given the options,Amoebiasis is the most distinct answer as it is a water-borne disease.
