- Question
Non-Gonococcal Urethritis is most often caused by
Options- A. chlamydia
- B. gonorrhea
- C. progesterone
- D. herpes genitalis
- Correct Answer
- chlamydia
ExplanationChlamydial infection is very common in both males and females.
NGU (Non-Gonococcal Urethritis) is an infection of the urethra caused by pathogens (germs) other than gonorrhea.
Several types of germs cause NGU. The most common and serious is chlamydia.

Correct Answer: Each tRNA binds a particular amino acid.
Explanation:
tRNA abbreviated as A transfer RNA is an adaptor molecule composed of RNA, typically 76 to 90 nucleotides in length, that serves as the physical link between the mRNA and the amino acid sequence of proteins.
Correct Answer: They are the sites at which microtubules attach to chromosomes.
Explanation:
They are the sites at which microtubules attach to chromosomes.
Correct Answer: Sigmoid colon or pelvic colon is a curved, S-shaped portion of the large intestine which is closest to the rectum and anus * It helps to transports fecal matter from the descending colon to the rectum and anus * It is the final segment of the colon
Correct Answer: long, double chains of nucleic acids.
Explanation:
Gene is a segment of chromosomal DNA or a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function. It is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity.
As genes are made up of DNA it impies that they are long, double chains of nucleic acids as DNA is made of nucleic acids.
Correct Answer: Younger people generally have a slower metabolism than adults.
Explanation:
Metabolism is the set of life-sustaining chemical transformations within the cells of organisms. The three main purposes of metabolism are the conversion of food/fuel to energy to run cellular processes, the conversion of food/fuel to building blocks for proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and some carbohydrates, and the elimination of nitrogenous wastes.
Younger people have faster metabolism than adults. Hence, the given statement 'Younger people generally have a slower metabolism than adults' is FALSE.
Correct Answer: axon
Explanation:
Schwann cells or neurolemmocytes are the cells in the peripheral nervous system that form the myelin sheath around a neuron's axon.
Correct Answer: All of the above
Explanation:
Major fructose sources include all fruits and honey.
Correct Answer: a plasmid used to transfer DNA into a living cell
Explanation:
The term 'Vector' in recombinant DNA methods, refers to a plasmid or other agent used to transfer DNA into a living cell.
Correct Answer: the complete set of an organism's genes and other DNA sequences
Correct Answer: Uracil
Explanation:
A nucleotide is an organic molecule that is the building block of DNA and RNA. They also have functions related to cell signaling, metabolism, and enzyme reactions. A nucleotide is made up of three parts: a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base. The four nitrogenous bases in DNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine. RNA contains uracil, instead of thymine.
A nucleotide within a chain makes up the genetic material of all known living things.
