Solution

The correct option is A Multiplicative state
The virus that causes AIDS, which is the most advanced stage of HIV infection. HIV gradually destroys the immune system by attacking and killing a type of white blood cell called a CD4 cell. HIV uses the machinery of the CD4 cells to multiply (make copies of itself) and spread throughout the body. This process, which is carried out in seven steps or stages, is called the HIV life cycle.

So, the correct answer is 'Multiplicative state'.
