The correct answer would be option B: "HIV/AIDS. When the body has contracted an STD or STI, the immune system kicks in and tries to defend the body from the virus, fungi or bacteria that caused the disease/infection. When this happens, what tends to occur is that the white blood cell (commonly called Leukocytes) numbers rise in an attempt to protect. That is the same thing that happens in an infection with HIV, except, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus has the ability to infect a certain type of White Blood Cell called T Lymphocyte (or T- helper cells) and by doing so, kill the cell, resulting in lower levels of white blood cells.

GuDViN [60]
The subject heading of a letter or complaint refers to THE TOPIC OF THE LETTER.
In letter writing, there are two basic types of letter, formal and informal letters. The informal letter are usually written to loved ones and usually do not require any formality, formal letters on the other hands are usually written to people we are not familiar with or those we did not know at all, thus a  high level of formality has to be maintained. Because of this, formal letters have particular format which should be adhered to when one is writing formal letter. A formal letter should have an heading, which is the summarized form of what the letter is about.
