Answer:

Schistosomiasis is a disease caused by infection with blood flukes of the geneticist Schistosomiasis. Transmission of, and exposure to, the parasite result from fecal or urinary contamination of freshwater containing intermediate host, snails, and dermal contact with the same water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Snails can carry diseases such as angiostrongyliasis, clonorchiasis, fascioliasis, fasciolopsiasis, opisthorchiasis, paragonimiasis, and schistosomiasis. Be cautious when stepping into freshwater, because there may be snails in it. I recommend not picking up or touching snails.
