We are showing the characteristics of the disease-hence the last part will be a noun.Appearing would denote a verb.
We are talking about a characteristic,not a person-hence 1,2,3,5 will be eliminated.

Hence ,answer would be D.
It takes time and effort to explain, so if my comment helped you please press Thanks button :)

extreme lethargy , heightened irritability and ____________ apparent confusion. the only one tht fits well .

The only thing tested here is parallelism.

Hence , i'd bet on D :D

Hope this helps :)
