Question

Which of the following disease effects liver cells and damages the bilirubin releasing cells?

• A. Influenza
• B. Measles
• C. Hepatitis
• D. Polio

Answer 1

The correct option is C Hepatitis

Hepatitis is a medical condition defined by the inflammation of the liver and characterized by the presence of inflammatory cells in the tissue of the liver. Hepatitis often leads to jaundice (a yellow discolouration of the skin caused by bilirubin breakdown, mucous membrane, and conjunctiva), poor appetite, and malaise. Hepatitis is acute when it lasts less than six months and chronic when it persists longer.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
