Final answer:

The virus spread through mouse urine or feces is the Hantavirus. It is transmitted to humans by inhalation of aerosolized rodent excretions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The virus that is spread through mouse urine or feces is a) Hantavirus. Hantaviruses are found throughout the world in wild rodents that shed the virus in their urine and feces. Humans can contract the virus through inhalation of aerosols from these materials. In contrast, the Dengue virus, Zika virus, and Chikungunya virus are all transmitted to humans by Aedes mosquito bites and not through rodent excretions.
