  1. 1What is the best diagnostic method for testing for strongylids and trichostrongylids?
    1. AFecal egg count
    2. BELISA
    3. CBaermann technique
    4. DSerology

    1. ATrichostrongyle-type eggs
    2. BStrongylid-type eggs
    3. CStrongyle-type eggs
    4. DTrichostrongylid-Strongyle type eggs
  3. 3Which nematode has the highest fecundity (fertility)?
    1. AHaemonchus
    2. BNematodirus
    3. CTrichostrongylus
    4. DCooperia
  4. 4Which nematode has the lowest fecundity (fertility)?
    1. ANematodirus
    2. BHaemonchus
    3. CBuonostomum
    4. DTrichostrongylus
  5. 5Overt disease is the main economic significance of nematode infections in ruminants.
    1. ATrue
    2. BFalse
  6. 6What does the 'integrated approach' to control and treatment of worms include?
    1. APasture management
    2. BScheduled whole herd deworming
    3. CFecal egg count reduction test
    4. DGenetic control
    5. ERefugia management
  7. 7What are the key things when choosing the correct drench?
    1. ASusceptibility
    2. BFecal egg count reduction testing
    3. CResistance
    4. DDosage
    5. ERotation of drugs
    6. FBlanket treatment for herd
  8. 8Drench resistance is defined as less than [blank_start]95% reduction[blank_end] in egg count
    1. A95% reduction
    2. B90% reduction
  9. 9The FAMACHA system estimates the level of [blank_start]anaemia[blank_end] using a chart of the [blank_start]eyelid[blank_end]. It assesses the risk of [blank_start]haemonchosis[blank_end]. Image for question 9
    1. Aanaemia
    2. Bworm burden
    3. Ceyelid
    4. Dmouth/gum
    5. Ehaemonchosis
    6. Fdehydration
  10. 10Apart from the FAMACHA system, what other method can be used as a selective treatment strategy?
    1. AShort interval weight gain
    2. BShort interval weight loss
    3. CFeed conversion rate
    4. DWool quality
