The correct option is A Typhoid
Salmonella typhi is the bacterium which causes typhoid fever. The bacterium is a gram-negative bacillus which belongs to the family Enterobacteriaceae. The disease is recognised by the rose coloured small spots of rash on the chest and skin. The infection also shows symptoms of fever, nausea, loss of appetite, diarrhoea and headache. These bacteria are found in the spleen, lymphatic system, intestine and blood of the infected person. The bacteria is also found in the faeces of the infected person.
So, the correct answer is option A.
