Solution

The correct option is B Nervous
The venom of cobra consists primarily of neurotoxins (affects the nervous system) with several other compounds. They are capable of delivering a fatal bite. These block the transmission of the nerve impulse by the sensory and motor neurons. So, the correct answer is option B.
