Answer:

d.

Explanation:

Pruning is the process by which unused connections between neurons are eliminated. This has been studied and scientists believe this process takes place in order to get rid of any damaged or degraded neurons, allowing specific areas of the brain to improve their networking ability. Which is why it is a big area of study in regards to child development.

Why are metals good conductors of electricity but covalent compounds are poor conductors
Nataly [62]
The electrons in the outermost shell of the covalent compounds are shared by nearby atoms. As there are no free electrons for conducting electricity, the covalent compounds are perfect insulators at absolute zero. As the temperature increases, some electrons move from valence band to conduction band. This gives rise to conductivity. But as the numbers of charge carriers are very low, covalent compounds are poor conductors. On the other hand metals are good conductors cause of their bonding. Metallic bonding consists of a sea of electrons rather than discreet bonds. The free electrons are able to move freely. Since electricity and heat need electrons to move, the bonding promotes conductivity.

A client with suspected human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has had two positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) tests.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Western blot should be performed

Explanation:

Generally ELISA test is sensitive to elevated antibodies levels in the blood. Because HIV infection is characterise with increases in antibodies levels(HIV-antibodies levels)of the body, it is usually the first screening test for HIV,however it  is also sensitive to elevated antibody   from  any other infection apart from HIV. Therefore for confirmation, the procedure is to run a second ELISA test, to determine if the antibody rise was due to HIV or not. If the second test turns positive, then Western blot can be applied.

The Western blot through  secondary and primary antibodies binding , separates the  investigating antibodies, and  identity the specif HIV antibodies present  to give a positive HIV-antibody,  confirming ELISA positive test.

Thus for confirmation of HIV specific antibodies  of the blood; ELISA test followed by Western blot is  ideal
