infants are typically first exposed to disease
in utero.
during the birth process.
when feeding after birth.
8 - 12 hours after birth.

Explanation:

• Question 14: Recombinant DNA technology is used to produce proteins. For example, insulin (a protein) is produced using this technology. Lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids are not the typical final products of this technology.
• Question 15: A zoonotic infection is one that is indigenous to animals but can be transmitted to humans. Passive refers to a type of immunity (e.g., passive - immunity), a fomite is an inanimate object that can carry pathogens, and communicable just means that a disease can be transmitted, but not specifically from animals to humans.
• Question 16: Infants are typically first exposed to disease during the birth process. The birth canal contains various microorganisms. While in - utero exposure can happen in some cases (e.g., if the mother has an infection that crosses the placenta), it is not the typical first exposure. Feeding after birth and 8 - 12 hours after birth are later events in terms of exposure compared to the birth process.

Answer:

• Question 14: protein
• Question 15: zoonotic
• Question 16: during the birth process
