Question

hiv (human immunodeficiency virus) attacks a type of t cell involved in orchestrating active immune responses. what type of t cells does the virus affect?
a helper t cells
b cytotoxic t cells
c killer t cells

Explanation:

Helper T - cells play a crucial role in orchestrating active immune responses. HIV specifically targets and infects helper T - cells, which weakens the immune system. Cytotoxic T - cells (also known as killer T - cells) are mainly involved in directly killing infected or abnormal cells, not in orchestrating immune responses like helper T - cells.

Answer:

A. Helper T cells
