Answer:

The correct option is: B) echovirus

Step-by-step explanation:

The echovirus is a highly infectious RNA virus, which is present in the gastrointestinal tract and is responsible for causing aseptic meningitis, commonly called viral meningitis.

This virus is predominantly transmitted in humans via the fecal-oral route. It can also be transmitted via respiration of oral secretions such as saliva.
