Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Airborne transmission occurs when tiny microorganisms from evaporated droplets remain suspended in air or are carried on dust particles. Transmission of microorganisms through insect bites is not termed airborne transmission. Airborne transmission does not occur when droplets containing microorganisms get propelled through air. Droplets containing microorganisms getting propelled through air leads to droplet transmission. Airborne transmission also does not occur when disease-causing agents spread through air pollution.
