Solution

The correct option is A 1 - A, 2 - C, 3 - B
Acute diseases: Diseases that persist only for a very short period.
E.g., Common cold is a viral disease that affects the nose, ears, and bronchial tubes. Symptoms subside within a few days.
Chronic diseases: Diseases whose symptoms prolong for several years or even a lifetime.
E.g., AIDS is a viral condition that weakens the immune system of a person such that he/she can not fight off any kind of infection.
Congenital disorders, also known as birth defects, are the structural or functional abnormalities caused due to error in genetic codes.
E.g., Haemophilia is a condition impairs the ability of the body to clot the blood. As a result, even a small cut can cause uncontrollable bleeding.
