HIV binds to Helper T cells of your immune system.<br> A. True<br><br> B. False
vredina [299]

Answer: True

HIV infects a type of white blood cell in the body's immune system called a T-helper cell (also called a CD4 cell). These vital cells keep us healthy by fighting off infections and diseases. HIV cannot reproduce on its own. Instead, the virus attaches itself to a T-helper cell and fuses with it (joins together).

Explanation:

T-cells, the thymus cells, work in a similar way but destroy infected cells rather than manufacture antibodies. In HIV infection, the body mounts a very strong antibody response in the first few weeks that partially works, bringing the viral load down from millions to, on average, about 50,000 copies/ml.
