3. Question
1 pointsConsider the following statements about YARAVIRUS-
- It can infect amoeba.
- It does infect human cells.
- Over 90% of its genome has not been observed before.
Which of the above is/are correct?
Correct
https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/this-word-means-yaravirus-6265066/
In a lake in Brazil, researchers have discovered a virus that they find unusual and intriguing. Called Yaravirus, it has a “puzzling origin and phylogeny”, they report in a study on the pre-print server bioRxiv.
The Yaravirus infects amoeba and has genes that have not been described before, something that could challenge how DNA viruses are classified.
Over 90% of the Yaravirus’s genome has not been observed before, the researchers have reported, after using standard protocols for genetic analysis and being unable to find any “classical viral genes”.
The virus does not infect human cells.

Question 5 of 5
5. Question
1 pointsThe word ‘Denisovan’ is sometimes mentioned in media in reference to-
Correct
Scientists have uncovered the most complete remains yet from the mysterious ancient-hominin group known as the Denisovans.
The jawbone, discovered high on the Tibetan Plateau and dated to more than 160,000 years ago, is also the first Denisovan specimen found outside the Siberian cave in which the hominin was uncovered a decade ago — confirming suspicions that Denisovans were more widespread than the fossil record currently suggests.
The research marks the first time an ancient human has been identified solely through the analysis of proteins. With no usable DNA, scientists examined proteins in the specimen’s teeth, raising hopes that more fossils could be identified even when DNA is not preserved.
