Answer to Problem 1MCQ

Correct answer:

Cystitis is an infection of the urinary bladder. Therefore, option (a) is correct.

Option (a) is given as “bladder”.

Explanation of Solution

Justify the reason for the correct statement:

The UTI can occur at various sites, it infection occur in urinary bladed then it is called as cystitis, in kidney then it is called as pyelonephritis, and urethra then it is called as urethritis. The most common causative agents of cystitis/pyelonephritis are Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, and Enterococcus.

Hence, option (a) is correct.

Justify the reasons for the incorrect statements:

Option (b) is given as “urethra”.

Cystitis is not an infection of the urethra. Hence, it is a wrong answer.

Option (c) is given as “kidney”.

Infection in the kidney is called as pyelonephritis. Hence, it is a wrong answer.

Option (d) is given as “vagina”.

Infection in the vagina is called as vaginitis. Hence, it is a wrong answer.

Hence, options (b), (c), and (d) are incorrect.

Conclusion

Cystitis is an infection of the urinary bladder.

In a natural population of outbreeding plants, the variance of the total number of seeds per plant is 16. From the natural population, 20 plants are taken into the laboratory and developed into separate true-breeding lines by self- fertilization-with selection for high, low, or medium number of seeds-for 10 generations. The average variance in the tenth generation in each of the 20 sets is about equal and averages 5.8 across all the sets. Estimate the broad-sense heritability for seed number in this population.
