Solution

The correct option is C Asthma
AIDS is caused by HIV virus and transmits sexually.
Jacob syndrome is characterized by an extra copy of Y chromosome in a male. Thalassemia is an inherited autosomal recessive blood disorder characterized by abnormal formation of hemoglobin. Whereas asthma is a respiratory condition caused by attacks of spasm in the bronchi of the lungs, causing difficulty in breathing. One of its cause is coming in contact with some air-borne allergens or exposure to some viral infections in infancy or in early childhood when the immune system is developing.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
