• C. $A\to \left(r\right),B\to \left(q\right),C\to \left(p\right),D\to \left(s\right)$
• D. $A\to \left(p\right),B\to \left(r\right),C\to \left(q\right),D\to \left(s\right)$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $A\to \left(r\right),B\to \left(p\right),C\to \left(q\right),D\to \left(s\right)$

Treponema pallidum is a spirochaete bacterium with subspecies that cause treponemal diseases such as syphilis, bejel, pinta, and yaws.

Yersinia pestis is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped coccobacillus, a facultative anaerobic bacterium that can infect humans and animals. It causes the deadly disease called as bubonic plague.

Typhoid fever, also known simply as typhoid, is a bacterial infection due to Salmonella typhi.

Vibrio infections are largely classified into two distinct groups: Vibrio cholerae infections and non cholera Vibrio infections.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
