Answer: D. Assuming that all bacteria can infect you because your mother told you so is an example of biological literacy.

Explanation:

The biological literacy suggests that people must follow the principles of biology and implement the innovation and ideas for the betterment of the society. It has three components which are as follows:

1. The ability to use the scientific inquiry to creativity think for the issues that are faced by the human society in the real world. The scientific inquiry involves the experimentation procedures.

2. So as to spread the thoughts of the biological literacy to others.

3. To process the biological thoughts and implement them.

Among the given options, the sentence which is totally inaccurate about Biological literacy is,

"Assuming that all bacteria can infect you because your mother told you so is an example of biological literacy." This is because of the fact that it is based on the mother's self based opinion it is not the outcome of experimental analysis which can prove a valid biological principle that is related with the bacterial infection.
