The pathogen causing Amoebiasis is transmitted through which of the following?(a) By touch(b) Insect bite(c) Food or water contaminated with cysts(d) Droplet InfectionI got this question during an interview for a job.This interesting question is from Protozoan Diseases in Humans topic in section Human Health and Disease of Biology – Class 12

Answer»

Correct choice is (c) Food or water CONTAMINATED with cysts

To EXPLAIN I would say: PATHOGEN which causes Amoebiasis is Entamoeba HISTOLYTICA. Certain carriers and VECTORS serve to transmit the parasite from faeces of the infected person to food and food products, thereby contaminating them. So the intake of contaminated food and water are the main source of infection.
