Host cells in response to viral infections produces a low molecular weight protein, that protect other cells against further viral infection. This substance is
phytotoxin
antibody
hormone
interferon
D.

Host cell in response to viral infections show a specific defence system against them. Cells invaded by a virus produce an anti-viral protein called interferon (IFN). On reaching the nearby uninfected cells, it makes them resistant to virus infection.
Tumour promoter is
substance that activates transcription in cancer cells
oncogene promoting cancer
substance that produces tumour
