During viral infection the protein formed in host cells to resist is:
- Interferone
- Antitoxin
- Antibody
- Histone
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
During viral infection, the protein formed in host cells to resist the virus is Interferon. Interferons are signaling proteins that are produced and released by host cells in response to viral infections. They play a crucial role in the body's defense against viruses by inhibiting viral replication and modulating the immune response.
So, the correct option is (A): Interferone

Immune System
It consists of tissues, cells, soluble molecules like antibodies and lymphoid organs. The WBC cells called the leucocytes have a significant role as they seek out to destroy the disease-causing organisms. These leucocytes are stored in different locations in the body including the spleen, bone marrow, and thymus. These organs are called as the lymphoid organs. The leucocytes are also present in the lymph nodes of the body.It is considered as the main lymphoid orga and. It produces all the blood cells including the lymphocytes. The thymus is an organ that is present near to the heart, beneath the breastbone.
