2. PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the
answer to Part A?
O A
"Every year, from 5 to 20 percent of the people in the
United States will become infected with influenza virus,
An average of 200,000 of these people will require
hospitalization and up to 50,000 will die."(Paragraph 1)
"When T cells specifically recognize influenza virus
proteins, they then begin to proliferate in the lymph
nodes around the lungs and throat. This causes swelling
and pain in these lymph nodes. (Paragraph 6)
"This results in a prolonged infection and greater lung
damage. This can also set the stage for complications
including secondary bacterial pneumonia, which can
often be deadly. (Paragraph 8)
"Functionally, influenza infection also hinders walking
and leg strength. Importantly, in young individuals these
effects are transient and return to normal once the
infection was cleared." (Paragraph 14)
