What type of viruses are Hep C and HIV?

  1. DNA

  2. RNA

  3. mRNA

  4. sRNA

The correct answer is: RNA

Hep C and HIV are classified as RNA viruses because they contain ribonucleic acid (RNA) as their genetic material. DNA (choice A) and mRNA (choice C) are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the genetic material of these viruses. sRNA (choice D) is also incorrect because it is a type of small RNA that serves different functions in the cell and is not the main genetic material of these viruses. Therefore, the correct answer is B RNA.
