Answer:

Cardiovascular disease is a non-communicable disease

Step-by-step explanation:

Cancer - cannot be caught as it refers to an overgrowth of cells.

Cardiovascular Disease - can't be caught as it refers to plaques building up on the arterial walls (atherosclerosis).

Tuberculosis - Is communicable as it is spread through the air.

HIV - is a communicable disease as it can be spread to another person.
