Answer: The correct option is (d) Influenza

Solution: Infectious diseases are caused by infectious agents which are classified based on the common characteristics of the organisms. These organisms that cause disease are found in viruses, bacteria, fungi, and single-celled and multi-cellular organisms.

Cholera, Tuberculosis, and Anthrax are some examples of diseases caused by bacteria.

Influenza is caused by an infectious agent called Influenza Virus. It is transmitted by infected people when they sneeze or cough releasing the virus in the air, which in turn is inhaled by a non-infected person and causes the infection.
