The correct answer is (a) Retrovirus group.

AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) is caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), which belongs to the Retrovirus group. Retroviruses are a type of RNA virus that reverse-transcribe their genetic material into DNA, allowing them to integrate into the host cell’s genome.
