When children eat soil or vegetables that have been contaminated with feces that contain Toxocara eggs, they are at risk of getting which of the following?

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Eating soil or contaminated vegetables can lead to ingestion of Toxocara eggs, which can hatch into larvae in the human intestine and then migrate to different organs, causing visceral larva migrans. Brucellosis, Ehrlichiosis, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever are caused by bacterial infections transmitted through ticks and other vectors, and are not related to ingestion of Toxocara eggs.
