Correct answer: D
Explanation: 

• Diseases or infections which are transmitted through sexual intercourse are collectively called sexually transmitted diseases or venereal diseases or reproductive tract infections. 
• Gonorrhoea, syphilis, genital herpes, Chlamydiasis, Trichomoniasis, Hepatitis-B, AIDS are some of the STDs.
• Loiasis is an eye infection caused by the Loa loa worm that can come in contact with humans through the bite of deerflies. 
  
• Thus option D is the correct answer.

Chlamydia is the most common type of bacterial STD. It doesn't cause any symptoms, hence is difficult to detect in the early stages. 

Vitamin E deficiency is responsible for causing infertility. Vitamin E helps in increasing the thickness of the endometrium in women. In men, it helps in increasing the sperm motility and health.

Diseases or infections which are transmitted through sexual intercourse are collectively called sexually transmitted diseases or venereal diseases or reproductive tract infections. Gonorrhoea, syphilis, genital herpes, Chlamydiasis, Trichomoniasis, Hepatitis-B, AIDS are some of the STDs. The genitalia herpes is caused by Herpes simplex virus. Thus option C is the correct answer. 

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is a specialized procedure to form an embryo in the laboratory in which a sperm is directly injected into the ovum. Thus, even if the person paralysed due to spinal cord injury cannot participate in copulation, he can still become father to a child using this technique.

• Gamete intrafallopian transfer also called GIFT, involves a direct transfer of both human gametes, sperm and oocytes, into the fallopian tube.
• In GIFT, an incision has to be made in the abdomen and the eggs and sperm are immediately placed in the fallopian tubes using a laparoscope, a small telescope-like instrument. 

The technique in which ovum is fertilized outside the body and embryo is introduced back into the woman's uterus is called as in vitro fertilization. The baby conceived by in vitro fertilization is called a test tube baby. When an ovum is fertilized inside the body, the process is called as in vivo fertilization.

GIFT referred as a gamete intra Fallopian transfer. In this, the egg from the donor and the sperm from the father (or the donor male) is taken and are transferred to the oviduct or the Fallopian tube of the recipient. 

A.Correct option B

B.Explanation for correct option:

• HIV causes AIDS and interferes with the body's ability to fight infections.
• The virus can be transmitted through contact with infected blood, semen or vaginal fluids.

In few weeks of HIV infection, flu-like symptoms such as fever, sore throat and fatigue can occur.

• As the disease progresses it can lead to death. 

AIDS, which is caused by the HIV virus, attacks the immune system, making it weak, hence the individual suffers from many different types of diseases. Also in the early stages of the disease, very little or no symptoms, like a headache, fever, fatigue and sore throat appear, which is misunderstood for some kinds of flu.
