Chorology is the study of the geographical distribution of organisms, including plants and animals, making it the correct answer. The other options relate to different fields: cosmetology (beauty treatments), osteology (study of bones), and mycology (study of fungi).

Diseases or infections that can be naturally transmitted from vertebrate animals to humans are called zoonoses. This term is widely accepted in medical and biological sciences, making option B the correct answer.

The human eye socket, or orbit, is formed by seven bones: the frontal bone, sphenoid bone (lesser and greater wings), zygomatic bone, maxillary bone, palatine bone, ethmoid bone, and lacrimal bone. This is well established in anatomical sources and confirmed by multiple authoritative references. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Seven' (option D).

Sleeping sickness, also known as African trypanosomiasis, is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma, which is transmitted by the tsetse fly. The other options are different parasites causing other diseases.

Sleeping sickness is caused by the tsetse fly, not mosquitoes. Dengue fever, malaria, and filariasis are all transmitted by mosquitoes, making sleeping sickness the correct answer as it is not mosquito-borne.

The scientific name for the family of flying fish is Exocoetidae, which includes various species known for their ability to glide above water. The other options refer to different fish species unrelated to flying fish.

The kangaroo rat can survive its entire life without drinking water, obtaining moisture from the seeds it eats and metabolic water production. Other animals like camels and desert lizards require some water intake, while cuttlefish live in aquatic environments.

Auxology is the scientific study of growth, especially human growth. The other options refer to unrelated fields: Autology is self-study or self-knowledge, Avionics relates to aircraft electronics, and Axiology is the study of values.
