The dengue fever is caused by the bite of which of the following mosquitoes ?

Dengue fever is a viral disease transmitted to humans by the bite of infected mosquitoes of the Aedes genus. The primary vector is Aedes aegypti, while Aedes albopictus (also known as the Asian tiger mosquito) serves as a secondary vector. These mosquitoes typically breed in stagnant water near human habitations and are most active during daylight hours, particularly in the early morning and evening.

• Anopheles: This genus is the primary vector for Malaria.
• Culex: These mosquitoes are known for transmitting diseases such as Japanese Encephalitis, West Nile virus, and Lymphatic Filariasis.

While the Asian tiger mosquito (Option C) can transmit the virus, the genus Aedes (Option A) is the more comprehensive and standard answer as it includes the principal vector Aedes aegypti.
