The correct Answer is:
A
AIDS or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or acquired immune deficieney syndrome (a death warrant) is a serious disease (also called slim discase) caused by a retrovirus HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). It is a set of symptoms and infections resulting from the damage to the human immune system by the virus, that depletes primarily the number of T- lymphocytes (CD-4 T cells or helper T-cells) and renders the patient susceptible to opportunistic infections i.e., infection caused by non-pathogens.
