Female Aedes mosquito carries dengue virus.
Explanation:
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral disease occurring in tropical and subtropical areas. Dengue virus (DENV) is the cause of dengue fever. It is a mosquito-borne, single positive-stranded RNA virus of the family Flaviviridae; genus Flavivirus. Five serotypes of the virus have been found, all of which can cause the full spectrum of disease. The full life cycle of dengue fever virus involves the role of mosquito as a transmitter (or vector) and humans as the main victim and source of infection. Female Aedes mosquito carries dengue virus and help spread the disease.
