Answer:

1. disk

2.halo

3. globular cluster

4.spiral arm

5. spiral galaxy

6. bulge

Explanation:

1. In Spiral or Lenticular galaxies, the galactic disk is the flat portion that consists of 2 components; the stellar component and the gaseous component. The stellar component consists of the galaxy stars while the gaseous component consists of cool gas and dust.

2. The galactic halo is the first portion of the galaxy to be formed. Formation of halos is caused by increased gravitational effects and the presence of primordial black holes. When baryonic and dark matter merges, halos are formed.

3. A globular cluster is a large compact spherical star cluster, typically of old stars in the outer regions of a galaxy.

4. Spiral arms are region of a large concentration of stars in a spiral galaxy. This large concentration of stars are usually very bright and easily noticeable.

5. The Milky Way galaxy consists of flat, rotating disk containing stars, gas and dust, and a central concentration of stars known as the bulge. The spiral arm that I explained above extends from the center of spiral galaxies. This extension makes it resemble a spiral and thus give spiral galaxies their name.

6. The bulge is a large concentration of stars.

Why has the Ugandan government pushed Abstinence as a means of combating the spread of HIV/AIDS?
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

According to (hrw dot com) the “Abstinence-Only HIV/AIDS Programs” in Uganda in the early 200x is called The Less They Know, the Better. Why the people there do not need to know so much about HIV, but they need just to follow the Abstinence ? “We don't think abstinence is really working in our communities. We work with children in primary five through seven who are engaging in sexual activities. We always come with the message to delay sexual debut. But for most children here, this is not enough.” - The youth leader of the program said.

So, the main reason why has the Ugandan government pushed Abstinence as a means of combating the spread of HIV/AIDS is: the people for whom the propaganda is done are mostly children above 10, who tend to start having sex at an early age. Uganda is home to nearly 1 million children orphaned by HIV/AIDS, many of them at high risk of HIV infection themselves.

“Abstinence Until Marriage" is the meaning of the Abstinence-Only HIV/AIDS Programs. The content of the propaganda is teaching that abstaining from sex until marriage is the only effective method of HIV prevention and that marriage between a man and a woman is the expected standard of human sexual behavior.

The other reasons are:

- Demographic and health surveys show that over half of Ugandan girls have had sex by age seventeen, usually with someone older.

- Among girls who marry before the age of eighteen, most marry men who have been sexually active for several years, often without having used condoms.

And there is the biggest problem for Uganda related to poverty: Ss in all countries, AIDS in Uganda is a disease of poverty. Many Ugandans live on less than U.S.$1 per day, a situation that has been exacerbated by decades of political violence and civil war. New HIV cases occur among girls trading sex for school fees, women enduring violent marriages because they lack economic independence, and orphans being pushed onto the street and sexually exploited.
