Assertion (A): AIDS is an acquired immunodeficiency condition. Reason (R): AIDS stands for Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome, indicating immune system deficiency obtained during lifetime.

Both statements are true from NCERT. NCERT states “The word AIDS stands for Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome” and explains “This means deficiency of immune system, acquired during the lifetime of an individual.” The Reason explains WHY AIDS is called acquired immunodeficiency (Assertion) - the acronym itself defines it as immune deficiency obtained during life.
