Solution

The correct option is A Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis spreads through air. This infection spreads by inhalation of droplets by a healthy person which are expelled by a tuberculosis patient. On the other hand cholera and dysentry are water borne diseases. AIDS spreads through sexual contact with the infected person, blood transfusion with an infected person, etc.
