The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks which system in the human body is affected by the bite of a cobra snake. 2. **Identifying the Venom Composition**: Cobra snake venom primarily contains neurotoxins. Neurotoxins are substances that can harm or disrupt the function of nerve cells. 3. **Analyzing the Effects of Neurotoxins**: Neurotoxins work by blocking nerve transmission. This means they can interfere with both motor (movement) and sensory (feeling) nerve functions in the body. 4. **Connecting the Effects to Body Systems**: Since the neurotoxins specifically target nerve cells, it is clear that the system affected by the cobra snake bite is the nervous system. 5. **Eliminating Other Options**: - The digestive system is not primarily affected by cobra venom. - The excretory system does not have a direct impact from neurotoxins. - The circulatory system may be affected indirectly, but the primary target of the venom is the nervous system. 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the system of man that is affected by the bite of a cobra snake is the **nervous system**. **Final Answer**: The nervous system (Option B). ---
