Answer:

total blood volume

Explanation:

Resistance to blood flow or vascular resistance refers to the slow down of the blood flow due to friction between the flowing blood and the walls of the blood vessels.

The resistance to blood flow is regulated by the viscosity of blood, total length, and diameter of the blood vessels. Higher blood viscosity imparts more resistance to the blood flow. The reduced diameter of blood vessels also restricts the blood flow through the blood vessels. Similarly, the resistance to the blood flow is directly proportional to the total length of the blood vessels.

However, total blood volume present in the body of the organisms does not affect vascular resistance. The total blood volume affects the blood pressure which in turn would affect the systemic vascular resistance.

CD4+ T lymphocyte is an essential part of in immune responses and an HIV  attacks on the immunity of an individuals by killing CD4+ T lymphocyte.  

In general, out of total T lymphocytes , there are nearly  65% of CD4+ T lymphocytes a healthy individual. The remaining T lymphocytes are CD8+ T lymphocytes

An HIV infected person, has damaged  body's immune system leading to decrease in number of CD4+ T lymphocyte as of hampered CD4+ T lymphocyte production.  

Hence, option D is correct
