Which term refers to a bloodborne infectious disease in the list?

• A. MRSA
• B. Bloodborne Infectious Disease
• C. Lyme Disease
• D. Meningitis

Answer: (B)

The concept here is recognizing terms that describe how diseases are transmitted. Bloodborne refers to diseases spread through infected blood, so the term that literally identifies this category is the one that says “Bloodborne Infectious Disease.” That option best fits the request because it designates a class of diseases defined by their transmission route, not a specific illness.

The other options are more about individual diseases or different transmission methods. MRSA is a specific bacterial infection, not the category name for bloodborne diseases. Lyme disease is transmitted by ticks, not through blood exposure in the sense used for bloodborne transmission. Meningitis is a condition caused by various pathogens and can be transmitted in multiple ways, so it isn’t the term that denotes a bloodborne infectious disease category.
