Rabies is spread through ____.

  1. Contact with blood.

  2. Contact with feces.

  3. Contact with saliva.

  4. Contact with urine.

The correct answer is: Contact with saliva.

Rabies is primarily spread through contact with saliva, specifically through the bite of an infected animal. The rabies virus is found in the saliva of infected animals and can be transmitted through a bite, scratch, or even mucous membranes coming into contact with infected saliva. Contact with blood, feces, or urine is not the primary mode of transmission for rabies.
