and is taking care of someone suffering from chicken-pox.

Answer 1

Answer:

correct answer is (c)part

Answer 2

Answer:

A person is most likely to fall sick in condition (C) because a malaria attack causes large scale destruction of blood cells making a person weak and anaemic. Being on four-day fast further decreases the functioning of the immune system as the person is not getting proper and sufficient food. Lastly chickenpox is a communicable and contagious disease.
