Answer 2

Answer:

Amoebic dysentery comes from a parasite called Entamoeba histolytica. You're more likely to get this kind if you travel to a tropical location that has poor sanitation. The second type, called bacillary dysentery, comes from bacteria called Shigella. Diarrhea from Shigella is also called shigellosis.
