Answer:

The basic process of disease transmission involves:_________

a. a source, a mode of transmission, and a susceptible host.

Explanation:

The sources of a disease include individuals, animals, and the environment.  Transmission occurs when there is a transfer of the pathogen from one individual or source to another.  Disease transmission cannot be complete without the host.  As always, a successful transmission happens when the host becomes susceptible to the disease, which will weaken its immune system.
