The answer is the first one: Emerging infectious diseases.

Explanation: Emerging infectious diseases are those that have recently appeared within a population or those whose incidence or geographic range is rapidly increasing. These diseases often result from pathogens that have jumped from animal hosts to humans, a process known as zoonosis. Examples include HIV, Ebola, and SARS-CoV-2 (the virus responsible for COVID-19).

Resurgent infectious diseases, on the other hand, are diseases that were previously under control but are now reappearing due to various factors such as changes in public health practices, antibiotic resistance, or changes in the environment. These do not necessarily involve a new jump from animal hosts to humans.

Summary: Emerging infectious diseases are due to organisms "jumping" from a natural animal host to using humans as a host.
