Explanation / Answer

1) The enzyme streptokinase secretes plasmin which in turn degrades fibrin matrix of the thrombus. Thus, the enzyme streptokinase has thrombolytic property. Coagulase converts fibrinogen to fibrin. Hyaluronidase catalyses the degradation of hyaluronic acid. Collagenase break down the peptide bonds present in collagen. Therefore, all these enzymes facilitate degradation of tissues. So, the correct answer for this question is option E (all are correct).

2) In parenteral route of entry, the pathogens are directly introduced into the bloodstream. Some of the examples of parenteral route include hypodermic needles, cuts, bites, stab wounds, intravenous infusion etc. So, among the given options, the entry by mucous membrane is not a parenteral route (option C).

3) Exotoxins are usually heat labile proteins. Endotoxins are usually heat stable lipopolysaccharides. So, the answer for this question is option C (proteins).

4) AB toxins are type III toxins secreted by some of the pathogenic bacteria. A in AB toxin stands for the "active" portion and B stands for "binding" part. So, the correct answer for this question is option A (active).
