The correct option is B Liver
Jaundice is often seen in liver disease such as hepatitis or liver cancer. Hepatitis C is due to a viral infection that causes inflammation, or swelling, and damage to the liver. The hepatitis C virus spreads through contact with infected blood, such as from a needlestick accident, injection drug use, or receiving a blood transfusion.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
