C Correct answer
Explanation

Gentamicin is the first-line antibiotic treatment for Tularemia (also called aminoglycosides). Fluoroquinolones (like ciprofloxacin) are alternatives, not first choice. Metronidazole treats anaerobic infections and parasites. Fluconazole is an antifungal medication. Gentamicin, often combined with streptomycin, has historically been the treatment of choice for this serious bacterial infection.
