Option 1: haemoglobin
Option 2: RBCs in blood
Option 3: T cells in the blood
Option 4: grey cells in the brain
Correct Answer: T cells in the blood
Solution : The correct option is T cells in the blood .
The AIDS virus, particularly the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), primarily targets and kills CD4+ T cells, a kind of white blood cell. T cells play an important function in the immune system because they coordinate and guide the body's response to pathogens. The virus attacks and destroys these T cells, and the immune system weakens, making the body more prone to opportunistic infections, cancers and other health problems.
