Genetic material found in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is

  • Double stranded RNA

  • Single stranded RNA

  • Double stranded DNA

  • Single stranded DNA


B.

Single stranded RNA

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is the causal organism of AIDS (Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome). It is a retrovirus belonging to the family-Retroviridae. The core of HIV contains two molecules of single-stranded RNA (as genetic material) and reverse transcriptase.
