Solution

The correct option is A Bioweapons
Biological weapons involve the release of bacteria and germs that breed and multiply rapidly. Several disease-causing microbes constitute the armory of bioterrorists which, if unleashed on human populations and even susceptible livestock, can inflict disease and suffering at an enormous scale. It might be bacteria like anthrax, cholera; viruses like smallpox, Ebola, Lassa, etc.
Thus option A is the correct answer.
