Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the analogy: The problem is asking you to identify the relationship between 'poison' and 'toxicity' and apply a similar relationship to 'contagion.'
Recognize that 'poison' is directly related to 'toxicity,' as poison causes toxic effects. This is a cause-and-effect relationship.
Now, consider the term 'contagion.' Contagion refers to the spread of disease or infection. The key concept here is the ability of a disease to spread from one individual to another.
Identify the term that describes the ability of a disease to spread. This is known as 'infectivity,' which is the measure of how easily a pathogen can spread and cause infection.
Conclude that the correct answer is 'infectivity,' as it parallels the relationship between 'poison' and 'toxicity.'
