Solution

The correct option is D Coitus
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease which spreads through sexual intercourse (coitus) with an infected person. It may also spread through non sexual contact and may spread via contact with a syphilis sore in an infected individual. It can also pass on to the child from an infected pregnant mother causing congenital defects and even intrauterine death or stillbirth.
