Question #2
The structure that produces cerebrospinal fluid is the:
A. Subarachnoid space
B. Choroid plexus
C. Arachnoid villi
D. Dura mater

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
The choroid plexus, a network of ependymal cells and capillaries in the ventricles of the brain, continuously produces CSF by filtration and secretion. CSF circulates through ventricles and the subarachnoid space and is reabsorbed by arachnoid villi into the venous system. Dura mater is the outer protective membrane.

In the context of human diseases, 'Kala-azar' is a severe parasitic disease. The vector for this disease is the:
A. Female Culex mosquito
B. Female Phlebotomus sandfly
C. Female Aedes mosquito
D. Female Anopheles mosquito

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Kala-azar, also known as visceral leishmaniasis, is a severe systemic disease caused by the protozoan parasite Leishmania donovani. The disease is transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected female Phlebotomus sandfly (in the Old World) or Lutzomyia sandfly (in the New World). The sandfly injects the infective promastigote stage of the parasite into the skin during a blood meal. Anopheles transmits malaria, Aedes transmits dengue and yellow fever, and Culex transmits filariasis.
