Explanation / Answer

1) HPA stands for helix promatia agglutinin. It is a leptin involved in the immune system. In the binomial nomenclature of naming of organisms, the first name is the genus name and the second name is the species name. Therefore, the answer for this question is genus: Helicobacter and species: pyroli (option 4).
