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.

Darina [25.2K]
The answer is: <span>larger horses have longer legs.

</span>The ancestors of horses lived in the forest, where they could hide from the predators. But, with the first steppes, they could be spotted by the predators.

Compared to unmyelinated axons, myelinated axons?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

A. Conduct impulses faster.

Explanation:

Myelinated axons are called that way due to the myelin sheath that surrounds them. Myelin has an insulation property so electrical impulses cannot travel through it, except on certain sites called Nodes of Ranvier. In order for electrical impulses to be conducted on myelinated axons they must "jump" from one Node of Ranvier to the next, and thus conduction is faster. This is called saltatory conduction.

nalin [4]

Answer:

A hematocrit value of your blood would be greater than normal because of dehydration.

Explanation:

The hematocrit value is an indicator of the proportion of the solid components of blood (red blood cells) with respect to the liquid component (it means plasma). When you are severely dehydrated, the proportion of plasma diminish while the solid components remain the same. In consequence, the red blood cells concentration will be greater and the hematocrit value (solid components/plasma) will be higher than normal. This condition is reversible, if you drink enough water, your hematrocrit values will be normal again.
