One of the side effects of chemotherapy for cancer is
A
Typhoid
B
Malaria
C
Hair loss
D
Hair growing
Correct Option:
C
Explanation
Many chemotherapy medicines act strongly against rapidly dividing cells. Cancer cells divide rapidly, but some healthy cells do too—including cells in hair follicles. Damage to these follicles can produce temporary hair loss, or alopecia. Malaria and typhoid are diseases, not chemotherapy side effects, while hair growth is the opposite of the typical effect.
