Explanation / Answer

31) Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a bleeding disorder in which the platelets are destroyed by the presence of antibodies against it. ITP is also called immune thrombocytopenia. In children, ITP follows viral infections like measles, mumps and flu and resolves within 2 months. In adults, ITP persists for about 6 months.

Cytotoxic reactions involve the adsorption of antigens or haptens to tissue or cell membrane, with subsequent attachment of antibodies to the adsorbed antigens. This will lead to complement activation with subsequent lysis and destruction of cells. In Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), plates are destroyed by cytotoxic reactions. So, the answer for this question is option (B).

Regarding other options,
