1. Immunity to malaria has been linked (to / with / on) the availability and function of helper CD4+
T cells, cytotoxic CD8+ T cells and γδ T cells that can respond (on / to / for) both the asymptomatic liver stage and the symptomatic blood stage of Plasmodium sp. infection.

2. Filoviruses are filamentous, single-stranded, negative-sense RNA viruses. Some members of this family ((in / to / --) particular, ebola virus and Marburg virus) can cause severe viral haemorrhagic fevers with very high mortality.

4. Cardinium is best known from the arthropod groups Hymenoptera, Hemiptera, Diptera, Protura, Acari, and Araneae, where it occurs in 6–7% of species. (By / in / for) contrast, it is not known in nematodes, except in several plant-parasitic nematodes.

13. Predominantly ectothermic marine animals perform optimally (on / at / in) temperatures determined primarily over evolutionary timescales, and many species, particularly pelagic fish, move with seasonal temperature variations to remain (between / across / within) a preferred thermal range.

15. Shifting vegetation and biomes connected to thawing permafrost and other changes have an impact on the distribution of animals that migrate (along / across / within) terrestrial and freshwater aquatic landscapes, although it is sometimes difficult to link these changes directly (to / with / on) thawing permafrost.
