Solution

The correct option is D Fecal-oral route
Polio is usually spread via the fecal-oral route (i.e., the virus is transmitted from the stool of an infected person to the mouth of another person from contaminated hands or through objects such as eating utensils). In some cases, they may spread directly via an oral to oral route.
So, the correct answer is option D.
