Question

Sexually transmitted disease caused by parasite is:
A. Trichomoniasis
B. Filariasis
C. Scabies
D. Enterobiasis

Answer 1

Hint: Infections caused through unsanitary and unprotected sexual activity are known as sexually transmitted infections (STIs), also known as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and the earlier term venereal disease. Not all STIs cause symptoms, and they may not show right away after an infection. A disease can be carried without symptoms in some cases, increasing the risk of infection.

Complete answer:
Option: A - Trichomoniasis is a parasitic infection that is spread through sexual contact. It produces a variety of symptoms in both men and women who are afflicted.
So, Option A is correct.
Option: B – Filariasis is caused by filarial worms and spreads by the biting of rat fleas. So, filariasis is not a sexually transmitted disease.
So, Option B is not correct.
Option: C - Sarcoptes scabiei, a small burrowing mite, causes scabies, an itchy skin disease. It is not a sexually transmitted disease.
So, Option C is not correct.
Option: D - Enterobiasis, often known as pinworm illness, is a contagious parasitic condition that primarily affects children. It is not a sexually transmitted disease.
So, Option D is not correct.

Hence, Option A. Trichomoniasis is the correct answer

Note:
Trichomoniasis (sometimes known as "trich") is a sexually transmitted illness (STD). Infection with the protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis causes it. Although the illness has a variety of symptoms, most people who are sick are unaware that they are infected. During intercourse, the parasite spreads from an infected person to an uninfected one. Itching, irritation and burning sensation at the genitals and urethra is a common symptom associated with trichomoniasis.
