It is known that two influenza viruses can recombine when both are present in an animal at the same time the result of recombination is a great variety of train containing different H and N spikes .This raises the possibility that a human influenza virns can recombine with an influenza virus from a lower animal to produce an entirely new spike . Research is underway to dertermine if that is the way that major new trains come into being . Another possibility is that two animal influenza strains may recombine in a pig ,for example ,to produce a new strain which is transmitted to man 46 According to the passage , scientist have discovered that influenza viruses a.cause ill health in wild animals b.don’t always cause symtoms in birds c.are rarely present in wild birds d.change when transmitted from animals to man 47What is known about the influenza virus ? a.It was first found in a group of very old birds b.All the different strains can be found in wild birds c.It existed over 100 million years ago d.It can survive in many different places 48According to the passage a great variety of influenza strain can appear when a.H and N spike are produced b.Animal and bird virus are combined c.Dissimilar types of virus recombine d.Two viruses of the same tipy are contracted 49New strains of viruses transmitted to man by a.a type of wild pig b.diseased lower animals c.a group of migrating birds d.a variety of means 50It can be inferred from the passage that all of the following are ways of the producing new strains of influenza EXCEPT a.two influenza viruses in the same animal recombining b.animal viruses recombining with human viruses c.two animal viruses recombing d.two recombining in a human THE END .
