Answer:

All the options are correct.

Explanation:

The causative agent of the disease is Escheria Coli which is a bacteria.

Escheria Coli have different serotypes which is as a result of variations in its genome.

One of the serotype of E. Coli is E. coli O157:H7 which is a good borne pathogen and it is one of the shiga like toxin producing E.coli, a food borne disease and it is gotten from consuming contaminated food products, raw or not properly processed milk or meat.

The organism has O antigen type 157 and flagella type 7 and can produce LT and ST toxins. It causes infectious dysentery.

The symptoms include watery diarrhea, abdominal cramps, bloating, nausea, and low grade fever.

It can be treated by the administration of an anti-diarrheal drug, plenty of fluids.
