Frederic has a noninfectious disease. Which statement describes how he may have contracted his disease?

A noninfectious disease does not spread from person to person. It may be inherited through genes passed from parents to a child, so “He inherited it from his parents” is the correct statement. Sneezing can spread some infectious diseases, and viruses cause infectious diseases; antibiotics also do not cause a disease to be noninfectious.
