Answer:

a. was engineered as an oncovirus, only infecting tumor cells.

Explanation:

Oncoviruses such as the engineered herpes virus is used a tool for killing cancer/tumor cells. When a virus infects a cancer cell, it makes several copies of itself within the cancer cells until the cell burst. The oncoviruses only target tumor cells, it does not affect healthy normal cells.

In addition to infecting tumor cells, it also triggers the immune system against the cancers.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

- is your grandson ok? How come he didn't call you directly

- Aren't you lucky to be so close with your grandson and his friend; do you get to see or talk with them often?

Explanation:

To know if Helen is a victim of fraud or not we need to analyze and ask the question to see if the doubts are valid or not. It is very unlikely that her grandson's best friend calls her and not the grandson himself for help. Are they are so close and often meet so they are well known to each other to ask for such type of help and why not the grandson.

If they really well know with the friends and their grandson is able to ask the help himself, this is genuine if not she might have victim of the fraud.
