📚 Practice ConceptWhat measure would you take to prevent water-borne diseases?
Which of the following statements about disease transmission and prevention methods are correct? S1: Malaria is transmitted by the female Anopheles mosquito, which acts as a vector for Plasmodium. S2: Filariasis, caused by Wuchereria, is transmitted to humans through the bite of female Culex mosquito vectors. S3: Dengue, a viral disease, is primarily spread by Aedes mosquitoes, hence controlling their breeding sites is crucial. S4: Ringworm, a common fungal infection, is mainly acquired through contact with infected individuals or their contaminated belongings, without any insect vector. S5: Introducing Gambusia fish into ponds helps prevent mosquito-borne diseases by feeding on adult mosquitoes.
