Anabolic steroids are synthetic forms of the male hormone testosterone that are used to cause muscle hypertrophy.
It is properly knowns as anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS). They are anabolic in nature and increases the protein found within the cells especially in the skeletal muscles. It also has varying degrees of androgenic and virilizing effect which includes inducing the development and maintenance of male secondary sexual characteristics such as facial and hair body growth.
In the 1930s AAS were synthesized and are recently used as a therapeutic medicine to stimulate muscle growth, increase appetite, induce puberty in males and treat wasting conditions among cancer and AIDS patients. It was also acknowledged by the American College of Sports Medicine that AAS, when joined with an adequate diet, can contribute to increasing the body weight, often as lean mass increases and the gains in muscular strength are achieved by doing high-intensity workout and proper diet.
Answer:
Exposure to a virus is closely related to the development of immunity, since the immune system is responsible for creating antibodies in response to the presence of potentially harmful biological agents, such as these viruses.
Explanation:
Viruses are biological agents that can produce diseases when they enter the body of a living being.<u> In response to contact with a virus, the</u><u> immune system</u><u> synthesizes specific </u><u>antibodies</u> to combat the foreign biological agent.
Antibody immunity can be of two types. It is fast when it is mediated by immunoglobulins M (IgM), which attack the virus anywhere, while the late and prolonged response is due to the development of immunoglobulins G (IgG).
An example of immunity to a virus occurs with the exhibition to the virus of the Dengue, that creates permanent immunity to the viral serotype to which an individual is exposed.
The acquired immunity, mediated by antibodies, is the base for the development of vaccines.
