Select the correct statement about immunodeficiency?

A.Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) disease is an acquired condition.
B.The causative agent in acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a virus that recognizes CD4 proteins.
C.Hodgkin's disease is a hereditary immunodeficiency found in children.
D.The most common form of immunodeficiency is graft versus host (GVH) disease.

B.
SCID is a condition that people are born with
Hodgkin's lymphoma is a cancer (not directly inherited, only the proto onco genes are)
GHV is not the most common form of immunodefiency

It's definitely B.

The HIV virus particles can't get into your cells with CD4 proteins (which it uses as a docking port, basically).

SCID isn't acquired, Hodgkin's is a cancer, and GVH is NOT the most common form of immunodeficiency.
