<span>Scientist believe that glycolysis is one of the very first biochemical processes that evolved due to some hard evidence. First, all living organisms perform glycolysis. The genes used in the process of glycolytic enzymes are always conserved at a high rate. Glycolysis has been found to predate atmospheric oxygen and photosynthesis due to the fact that it happens in anaerobic conditions. Finally, it also has been found to happen in cytosol which means it would have begun occurring prior to eukaryotes.</span>
The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) has been discovered to be the cause of AIDS.
AIDS or Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome is caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). HIV is a retrovirus which contains RNA as the genetic material.
HIV infection can be transmitted through:-
- sexual contact with an infected individual,
- transfusion of contaminated blood samples,
- sharing infected needles e.g. in the case of drug addicts who take the drug intravenously,
- infected pregnant woman to the fetus through placenta.
AIDS adversely affects the immune system of an infected individual. ELISA or enzyme linked immunosorbent assay test is used largely for diagnosing AIDS.

Answer:
The first part of the small intestine is called duodenum
Explanation:
The small intestine is a tightly folded tube which connects to the stomach on the top end and to the large intestine on the bottom end.
The small intestine consists of three parts:
- jejunum (absorbs sugars, amino acids, and fatty acids)
- ileum (absorbs remaining nutrients that did not get absorbed by the duodenum or jejunum)
Duodenum is responsible for completing the first phase of digestion. In this section of the intestine, food is mixed with enzymes and bile which help break down food.
Answer:
Cancer is formed when there are mutations in a number of genes.
Explanation:
Malignant tumors are gene diseases which do not mean that cancer is necessarily an inherited disease (only in 5-10% of cases the cancer is inherited) because the vast majority of other tumors are the result of somatic, ie secondary, mutations that lead to malignant transformation.
Only 2% of human diseases are monogenic (caused by a change in one gene). The remaining 98% of the disease is either polygenic (caused by a change in several genes at the same time) or epigenetic (caused by non-genetic or post-genetic disorders of cellular molecules).
