Diseases carried from person to person through other hosts, such as animals or insects, are known as __________ diseases.
Basile [38]

The right option is D. vector-borne

Diseases carried from person to person through other hosts, such as animals or insects, are known as vector- borne diseases.

Vector-borne diseases are infectious diseases transmitted between humans or from animals to humans through the bite of infected hosts such as animals or insects. Most of these hosts are arthropod vectors which are bloodsucking insects such as mosquitoes, ticks, triatomine bugs, sandflies, and blackflies. Examples of vector-borne diseases include West Nile fever which is transmitted through the bite of an infected Culex mosquito, Leishmaniasis which is transmitted through the bite of an infected female sandfly and Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) which is transmitted by ticks.

max2010maxim [7]
The term aerobic exercise describes any type of exercise typically performed at moderate levels of intensity for extended periods of time that increases the heart rate. In such exercise, oxygen is used to "burn" fats and glucose in order to produce energy in the form of ATP, the basic energy carrier for all cells. Initially, glycogen is broken down to produce glucose, but in its absence, fat metabolism is initiated instead. Aerobic exercise is an exercise performed at a moderately high level of intensity over a long period of time. For example, running a long distance at a moderate pace.

The production of egg and sperm cells follows a certain sequence of events.
Maru [420]
The production of egg and sperm cells follows a certain sequence of events.

The correct order of those events are:
MEIOSIS, CELL DIFFERENTIATION, MATURE GAMETES.

Meiosis is defined as the process wherein a single cell is divided twice to produce four cells that contains half the original amount of genetic information.

Cell differentiation is defined as the process wherein the less specialized cell becomes a more specialized cell. The haploid cells are the end result of meiosis. They must undergo cell differentiation before they can become mature gametes.
