Detailed Solution

The correct option is 2nd, as water-borne diseases arise due to water pollution. Poor water quality becomes inescapable when water gets dirtied with modern waste, human waste, creature squander, trash, untreated sewage, and compound effluents. Drinking or cooking with such contaminated water prompts water-borne illnesses and diseases like amoebiasis, giardiasis, and toxoplasmosis. Debased water could convey infections, for example, Hepatitis A and E, microorganisms like E.coli (E.coli can be passed from one hand to another, for example, through sellers of road food or food dealt with by somebody conveying E.coli microbes. It can prompt food contamination).
The outcome: dangerous illnesses like cholera and typhoid fever. Other water-borne infections include runs, looseness of the bowels, polio and meningitis. Dirty water for washing can cause skin and irresistible eye illnesses like Trachoma. Trachoma can prompt visual weakness or visual deficiency.
