1. Vector
2. Transmitter
3. Drones
4. Conductor

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : Vector

The correct answer is Vector.

• Insects responsible for transmitting diseases are called Vectors.
  • Some of the common vectors are mosquitoes, fleas, lice, ticks, bed bugs, etc.
  • These are agents which can create severe ailments like dengue, yellow fever, or even chikungunya

• A conductor is a material that contains movable electric charges.
  • In metallic conductors, such as copper or aluminium, the movable charged particles are electrons, though in other cases they can be ions or other positively charged species.
  • Band theory, where the molecular orbitals of a solid become a series of continuous energy levels, can be used to explain the behaviour of conductors, semiconductors, and insulators.
  • The most familiar conductors are metallic.
