False, it is actually possible for infants to contract the virus from their mothers during childbirth. 

The most common case of viruses getting passed on to a mother's child during birth is HIV. They can also contract Hepatitis B (not A), herpes, measles, and many other cases.

Answer:

F

Explanation:

Childs and mothers share many things in common while the child is in childbirth, this question is specifically asking about the virus of HIV, and since the virus is passed through blood and through contact with sexual fluids, so the kid during birth can be in contact with contaminated blood and with vaginal fluids, so te kid can get HIV at child birth.

joja [24]

Answer:

a. 66.1798kg

b. 92.47%

Explanation:

His weight had been stable at 135 pounds until the past 6 months, in which he has experienced an involuntary weight loss of 10 pounds. He is 67 inches tall and his current BMI is 19.5. He complains of a poor appetite and being overly weak and tired. He also complains of cracks at the corners of his mount and a chronic sore throat which concerns him, given his cancer history. His usual diet is fairly consistent. He states that he rarely eats breakfast because he starts work at 6 a.m. He eats two deli meat sandwiches, "usually pastrami or salami," and a soda at 10 a.m., and may eat a candy bar in the afternoon when he gets off work. He often prepares frozen dinners or pizza at home in the evening and routinely drinks "about 4 or 5 beers" before going to bed. Occasionally he will cook a roast and mashed potatoes. He occasionally will have milk with cereal but rarely eats vegetables or fruit. He would like to know which vitamin supplement will give him energy.1.What is Samuel’s Ideal Body Weight? What is his current percentage of ideal body weight?

Extracting the parameters from the above statements

we can calculate ideal body weight in  men as

50 + (0.91 × [height in centimeters − 152.4])

convert his height in inches to centimeters

67inches=170.18

50+(0.91*(170.18-152.4)

66.1798kg

What is his current percentage of ideal body weight?

61.2/66.178*100%

92.47%

Why should product testing be done on humans instead of animals?
Grace [21]

Animal testing is inhumane and very unnecessary. There are so many different options available, There is no explanation for the poisoning, burning, and killing of about 100 mill animals each year causing them pain & fear. Animals are not little humans, and even tho we share a lot of our genes with other them the way our genes work is different.
