Explanation / Answer

Legionella is a type of bacteria found in freshwater environment like lakes and streams and it becomes a concern when it spreads to human made water systems.

The correct answer is C that is host lives in air conditioned condominium complex because large AC units use water to cool the air and they can be used by bacteria for their growth and this bacteria can be spread via water droplet. Home AC units do not use water to cool the air and that is why bacteria can't grow there.
