Which of the following is a disease caused by drinking contaminated water?

Cholera

The correct answer is Option (2)- Cholera

Cholera is a disease caused by drinking contaminated water.

Cholera is a bacterial infection of the small intestine caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It is typically spread through the consumption of water or food contaminated with the bacterium. Cholera leads to severe diarrhea and dehydration, and if left untreated, it can be fatal. It is a major public health concern in areas with poor sanitation and limited access to clean drinking water. Other diseases listed such as scurvy, rickets, and anemia are caused by nutritional deficiencies or other factors and are not typically associated with contaminated water.
