Based on the CDC guidelines a person with a CD4+ cell count between 200-400 is regarded as being in <u>the second stage</u> of the HIV infection.
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a condition caused by HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). AIDS is a chronic disorder and can become life-threatening for the infected person. The HIV viruses reproduce inside the host and while doing so they destroy the CD4+ immune cells which reduce the person's ability to fight against other diseases.
CD4+ cell count and AIDS
According to the CDC (U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), HIV infection is categorized into different stages based on the number of CD4+ cells.
- Stage 1: - CD4+ cell count is more than 500 per microlitre. There are no symptoms or AIDS-related conditions.
- Stage 2: - CD4+ cell count is more than 500 per microlitre. There are no symptoms or AIDS-related conditions.
- Stage 3: - The CD4+ cell count falls below 200 and AIDS-related symptoms and conditions are present.

Concentration gradient, size of the particle, and temperature are all factors
Yes it is.
Carbon dioxide goes through plants, which they turn into oxygen. Humans and animals take in the oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. Then it repeats.
Answer:
New information about the genetics of species is being discovered.
Answer:
Carbon dioxide moves in; oxygen moves out
Explanation:
The pigment that offers the green pigmentation for green plants is known as Chlorophyll. On the surface of the leaves on green plants are microscopic openings known as Stomata in the epidermis of leaves. Stomata are generally more numerous on the underside of leaves. They provide for the exchange of gases between the outside air and the branched system of interconnecting air canals within the leaf.
On a sunny day, The concentration of carbon dioxide in the air is a regulator of stomata opening in many plants. The stomata opens (then Carbon dioxide moves in and in-turn releases oxygen after photosynthetic activities has taken place) and closes in response to the internal pressure of two sausage-shaped guard cells that surround it. The inner wall of a guard cell is thicker than the outer wall.
The main function of these Guard cells are to control excessive water loss, closing on hot, dry, or windy days and opening when conditions are more favourable for gas exchange.
