Solution(By Examveda Team)

A. Endemic - Confined to a particular country, district, or location.
A disease outbreak is endemic when it is consistently present but limited to a particular region. This makes the disease spread and rates predictable.
B. Epidemic - The disease which appears very virulently among the people.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) describes an epidemic as an unexpected increase in the number of disease cases in a specific geographical area. Yellow fever, smallpox, measles, and polio are prime examples of epidemics.
C. Epiphytotic - The diseases which occur widely periodically.
When the number of individuals a disease affects increases dramatically, it is said to have become an epidemic (meaning "on or among people").
D. Pandemic - Disease not prevalent throughout the country, continent or the world. It is wrongly paired.
A PANDEMIC is an epidemic that's spread over multiple countries or continents.
