Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Nervous system

The venom of the cobra attacks the nervous system and they stop the transmission of the impulse. The neurotoxins released is known as the haditoxin. It causes severe pain, blurred vision, vertigo, drowsiness, and eventually paralysis. If the envenomation is serious, it progresses to cardiovascular collapse, and the victim falls into a coma. Death soon follows due to respiratory failure.
