Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Sore mouth in cattle is seen in Vesicular stomatitis.
Vesicular stomatitis is a viral disease that primarily affects horses, cattle, and swine. The agent that causes vesicular stomatitis, VSV, has a wide host range and can occasionally infect sheep and goats.
VSV causes blister-like lesions to form in the mouth and on the dental pad, tongue, lips, nostrils, hooves and teats.
These blisters swell and break, leaving raw tissue that is so painful that infected animals generally refuse to eat and drink and show signs of lameness.
