Man → mosquito → dengue virus. The food chain above is-

  1. i. a parasitic food chain
  2. ii. an incomplete food chain
  3. iii. a food chain without a producer

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a i and ii
  2. b i and iii
  3. c ii and iii
  4. d i, ii and iii
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: d i, ii and iii

Man → mosquito → dengue virus is a parasitic chain; the first step is not a green plant, so it is incomplete and without a producer.

Why the other options are wrong

  • a i and ii: iii is also true, because the chain has no producer; so all three apply.
  • b i and iii: ii is left out; having no producer, the chain is also incomplete.
  • c ii and iii: i is left out; the dengue virus depends on the mosquito's body, so it is also a parasitic chain.
