General ScienceBiology
The following Hepatitis virus is transmitted through blood.
  1. a.Hep. A
  2. b.Hep. B
  3. c.Hep. C
  4. d.Both (B) and (C)

Answer: (D) Both (B) and (C)

Hepatitis B and hepatitis C viruses spread through infected blood (transfusions, shared needles) and body fluids, so both are blood-borne. Hepatitis A spreads by the faecal–oral route through contaminated food and water, so choosing only (B) or (C) is incomplete.
