Answer:

B. Lyme disease is caused by a bacterium and RSMF by a rickettsial agent.

Explanation: Rocky Mountain spotted fever is characterized by a sudden, unrelenting and quickly escalating fever and headache and a rash that usually starts on the wrists and ankles. In contrast, the fever and aches associated with Lyme disease will wax and wane, and the circular rash will go away without treatment.
