Final answer:

The body fluids linked to the transmission of HIV and hepatitis are blood and semen.

Step-by-step explanation:

The body fluids linked to the transmission of HIV and hepatitis are blood and semen.

HIV spreads through contact between an infected person's body fluids and another person's bloodstream or mucus membranes.

Body fluids that may contain HIV are blood, semen, vaginal fluid, and breast milk.

On the other hand, body fluids such as saliva, urine, sweat, tears, mucus, and feces do not contain the virus.
