Solution

The correct option is B Chagas' disease
The cause of Chagas disease is the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which is transmitted from an insect known as the triatomine bug. These insects can become infected by T. cruzi when they ingest blood from an animal already infected with the parasite.
So, the correct answer is 'Chagas disease'
