The antibodies to the HIV virus may take up to three months to appear in the blood of the infected person. 
Therefore, the second blood test is necessary three months after a person thinks that he/she has been exposed to HIV to check the presence of these antibodies and confirm whether the person is infected or not.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

Mitophagy refers to the process which is evolutionarily conserved in the organisms to remove the dysfunctional mitochondria in the cell.

The mitochondrial is degraded by the digestive organelles by engulfing the mitochondria.

The mitochondria are engulfed by the lysosome and then phagosome is formed which is double membrane structure. This phagosome matures into the autophagosome and now has the mitochondria engulfed.

Since the mitochondria contain toe layer and during mitophagy engulfed by the phagosome, therefore, there is a total of four-layer.These four layers separate the matric of the mitochondria with the cytosol.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

The nitrogen cycle is most directly dependent upon-
vovangra [49]

Answer:

B) Nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning

Explanation:

Nitrogen cycle is the natural process in which atmospheric nitrogen is converted into nitrite and nitrate with the help of bacteria.

Nitrogen cycle is directly dependent on nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning.

As bacteria are responsible for most of the chemical conversion in the nitrogen cycle such as nitrogen fixation (first step) is done by soil bacteria (Cyanobacteria) that form ammonia, which is toxic to plants; nitrification in which ammonia is converted into nitrites and nitrates with the help of Nitrobacter and denitrification bacteria involve Pseudomonas, and Achromobacter which convert nitrite and nitrate into nitrogen.

The lightning breaks nitrogen molecules and allow  it to combine with oxygen in atmosphere which further dissolve in rain and form nitrates.

Hence, the nitrogen cycle is most directly dependent upon nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning and the correct option is B.

All of the following events occur during normal meiosis except _______. A. two haploid gametes fuse to form a diploid cell B. on
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

A. two haploid gametes fuse to form a diploid cell

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division. When a parent cell with "2n" chromosomes enters the process of meiosis, four daughter cells each with "n" chromosomes are formed. This occurs since homologous chromosomes separate from each other during anaphase-I. However, meiosis does not include the fusion of two haploid cells. The fusion of two haploid cells mainly occurs during the process of fertilization during which a haploid male gamete and a haploid female gamete fuse to form a diploid zygote.
