Flu viruses are mostly spread through droplets
- A.
  
  True
- B.

Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Flu viruses are mostly spread through droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. These droplets can contain the virus and can be inhaled by others who are in close proximity to the infected person. Additionally, the droplets can land on surfaces and objects, and if someone touches these contaminated surfaces and then touches their face, they can also become infected. Therefore, it is true that flu viruses are mostly spread through droplets.

Explanation
The correct answer is chickenpox. Chickenpox is a highly contagious viral infection that causes an itchy rash and flu-like symptoms. It is caused by the varicella-zoster virus and is characterized by red, itchy blisters that appear all over the body.

Mosquitoes are carriers of the malaria parasite, which is transmitted to humans through their bites. Malaria is a disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite, and it is primarily spread by female Anopheles mosquitoes. These mosquitoes become infected by feeding on the blood of an infected person and then transmit the parasite to other individuals when they bite them. Malaria can cause symptoms such as fever, chills, headache, and fatigue, and if left untreated, it can be life-threatening. Therefore, the correct answer is malaria.
