Solution

The correct option is A Diabetes
A non-communicable disease (NCD) is a disease that is not transmissible directly from one person to another. They are known as chronic diseases, tend to be of long duration and are the result of a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental and behavioural factors.
eg: cardiovascular diseases, cancers, diabetes, obesity, chronic respiratory diseases, musculoskeletal diseases and mental disorders etc.
