Answer:

Your answer is b) houseflies

Step-by-step explanation:

Flies excrete whenever they come to rest. By doing this the fly can transmit diseases. Dysentery is often spread through contaminated water or food. Cholera is caused by drinking contaminated water or food with cholera bacteria. Hope this helped :)
