The answer is the third one (Osteosarcoma): the most common and deadly form of bone cancer.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Osteomalacia: This condition refers to the softening of the bones due to a deficiency of vitamin D or problems with its metabolism. It is not a form of cancer.
  2. Osteomyelitis: This is an infection of the bone, typically caused by bacteria. It is not a form of cancer.
  3. Osteosarcoma: This is a type of bone cancer that is most common in adolescents and young adults. It is known for being both common and particularly aggressive, making it the most deadly form of bone cancer.
  4. Rickets: This condition involves the softening and weakening of bones in children, usually due to a prolonged deficiency of vitamin D. It is not a form of cancer.

Summary: Osteosarcoma is the most common and deadly form of bone cancer, making it the correct answer.
