Question

The polio virus disease has a certain tendency to infect which tissue?

A. Glandular tissue
B. Nervous tissue
C. Adipose tissue (fat)
D. Connective tissue

Answer 1

B. Nervous Tissue

Step-by-step explanation:

When it multiplies in the nervous system, the virus can destroy nerve cells. These nerve cells cannot regenerate, and the affected muscles lose their function due to a lack of nervous enervation - a condition known as acute flaccid paralysis (AFP). But basically, it causes paralysis.
