Answer»

The correct ANSWER is (c) Typhoid

The explanation is: During the movement of the larvae through the BODY of the animal, Ascaris damages various body parts and causes permanent injury. In the intestine, adults rob the animal of nutrition causing constipation, diarrhoea, WEAKNESS and anaemia. They MAY at times BLOCK the intestine which causes the death of the animal.
