Which of the following would be ACCURATE about an adenovirus that has a mutation in its fiber protein gene?

A. The virus would still cause upper respiratory tract infections in humans but at a slower rate. B. Because it has a defective fiber protein, it will now have a broader host range. C. It would not be able to cause disease in humans. D. It would be able to infect humans normally, but would not be able to replicate its genome. E.
