Even when asymptomatic:  <u>HIV </u>can be actively multiplying and killing cells in the immune system.

<h3>Effects of HIV </h3>

Human immunodeficiency virus is a virus which attacks the immune system of an infected body by killing cells in the immune system while multiplying rapidly. In the early stages of the infection the infected person might be asymptomatic but the virus will spread rapidly leading to an immune deficiency state.

Hence we can conclude that  <u>HIV </u>can be actively multiplying and killing cells in the immune system.

The cell spends 90 percent of its time performing "everyday" functions, growing and preparing to divide during
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

interphase

Explanation:

Interphase is the most important phase of cell life cycle where it spends 90 percent its time in regulating the metabolic activities of the cell. In this phase cell undergoes several metabolic activities to maintain the growth of the cell.

There are three phases in interphase G1, S and G2. During this phase cell undergoes several changes that include  cell grows, DNA replicates and prepare itself for mitosis.

Hence, the answer is "interphase".

The reabsorption of glucose occurs primarily through the walls of the
pantera1 [17]

Options are not provided in the question. The complete question is as following:

The reabsorption of glucose occurs primarily through the walls of the

A. glomerular capsule.

B. nephron loop.

C. proximal convoluted tubule.

D. distal convoluted tubule.

E. renal duct.

Answer:

C. proximal convoluted tubule.

Explanation:

Reabposrtion of glucose is supported by the nephron present in the kidney which mainatain body fluid homeostasis. It maintains extracellular body fluid volume stable  and also maintains the minerals and salts which are essential for body functioning. So, glucose reabsorption is a part of homeostasis.

The process of glucose reabsorption primarily starts through the walls of the  proximal convoluted tubule. proximal convoluted tubule are covered in microvillii and are extensive in length which increases the surface area for absorption. it also contain densly packed mitochndria which provide energy for efficient reabsorption. and then they are tranposrted to proximal straight tuble fo rfurther filteration.

Hence, the correct otpion is C.

The probability of a ___________ channel being open is controlled by the membrane potential.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

(b) Voltage gated

Explanation:

The cell membrane acts as a barrier that separates two aqueous media of different composition, the extracellular and the intracellular, regulating its composition. Most of the liposoluble drugs and solutes, when not ionized, directly cross the cell membrane through a passive diffusion process, which facilitates the passage of the medium where it is more concentrated to the one that is more diluted. The difference in concentration between the two media is called the concentration gradient, and diffusion will continue until this gradient is eliminated. According to Fick's law, the speed of this process will be much faster the higher the concentration gradient and the liposolubility of the molecule and the smaller its size.

More hydrophilic molecules, such as ions, are immiscible in membrane lipids and pass through specific specific transport mechanisms. In some cases, ions pass through hydrophilic pores called ion channels, and in others a favor of their concentration gradient is transported by binding to the transporter or transporter proteins. Both transport systems are passive and therefore do not consume energy. The great advantage is that the ion channels allow the flow of ions through a much higher speed than that of any other biological system. The flow of ions through each channel can be measured as an electric current, which is capable of producing rapid changes in membrane potential.

The gene that causes sickle cell disease is present in a higher percentage of residents of sub-saharan africa than among those o
Virty [35]
Sickle cell disease has a benefit in malaria infection because it makes the parasites easier to eliminate. This makes a person with sickle cell disease is more likely to survive the malaria infection, which found many in Africa.
<span>
Sickle cell disease has a few drawbacks because it makes the red blood cells less durable, which lead to the destruction of more red blood cells. In normal condition(where malaria doesn't exist like in America), this gene will make the organism less likely to survive than those who don't have the gene.</span>
