The spread of this disease can be prevented by the use of mosquito nets, repellents and preventing the reproduction of mosquitoes by stagnant water in our environment. Dengue symptoms usually begin within a few days of a bite, but can last up to 2 weeks. Symptoms can be mild or severe and can include fever with nausea, vomiting, rash, headache, eye pain, joint and muscle pain. In severe cases, dengue fever can cause shock, internal bleeding and even death.

Explanation for incorrect options:(B) Fleas

The flea, the general name of the order Siphonaptera, includes 2,500 species of small flightless insects that live as ectoparasites of mammals and birds. Fleas live by ingesting the blood of their hosts. In the United States, a number of fleas carry pathogens that can cause disease in humans, including: Plague: transmitted to humans most commonly by infected shingles (Oropsylla montana) in the United States and by oriental rat fleas (Xenopsylla cheopis), which are infected worldwide.

(C) Fire ants

Fire ants are several species of ants in the genus Solenopsis, which includes more than 200 species. Solenopsis are stinging ants, and most of their common names reflect this, such as ginger ants and tropical fire ants. Many of the common names of this genus are often used interchangeably to refer to other ant species, such as the term red ant, largely because of their similar color, even though they are not a member of the Solenopsis genus. Fire ant bites can cause anaphylaxis, a severe, life-threatening allergic reaction. Symptoms include dizziness, low blood pressure, loss of consciousness and/or cardiac arrest.

(D) Anopheles mosquito

Malaria is a life-threatening disease caused by parasites that are transmitted to humans through the bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. It is preventable and treatable. In 2021, there were an estimated 247 million cases of malaria worldwide.
