Scabies is described as a:

bacterial infection
viral infection
contagious infestation
fungal infection

The correct answer is: contagious infestation

Scabies is described as a contagious infestation because it is caused by a microscopic mite that burrows into the skin and lays eggs, causing skin irritation and other symptoms. This is different from a bacterial infection (A) which is caused by bacteria, or a fungal infection (D) which is caused by a fungus. Additionally, scabies is not caused by a virus (B), which is a different type of infectious agent.
