Explanation:

Direct transmission involves the spread of pathogens through direct contact or contact with contaminated objects. Shaking hands without washing afterward is direct - person - to - person contact. Contact with intermediate objects like doorknobs, phones, etc. is also a form of direct transmission as the pathogen is transferred from a contaminated surface. Coughing, sneezing, and talking are examples of droplet transmission which is a type of indirect transmission in some cases. Spreading MRSA and warts can be through direct contact but the option is too general and not as specific as the other correct ones in terms of direct transmission scenarios.

Answer:

Contact with an intermediate object, Shaking hands without washing afterward, Doorknobs, phones, work surfaces, work implements
