How are type 2 diabetes and HIV/AIDS different from each other

Biology
1 answer:
cupoosta [38]3 years ago
6 0
Type 2 diabetes has 2 causes: genetics (mutation in a gene or genes) and/or lifestyle poor choices (overweight, etc.), whereas AIDS is a result of being infected by a virus called HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). There's also a huge difference in how they are treated. Type 2 diabetics take medicine to help them monitor their sugar levels, they have to be careful about their diet and they have to exercise. HIV/AIDS patients have to take medicines that work to try and keep the HIV virus from replicating in their blood (T-cells) and to avoid getting sick - their immune system is seriously depressed.

Radda [10]

Answer:

A ____ is the underlying combination of genetic material present (but outwardly invisible) in an organism.
Alex

Answer:

D (Genotype)

Explanation:

A genotype is the genetic make up of an organism i.e. what the genetic material

of an organism constitutes. Genotype describes the set of genes contained in an organism's genome. According to Mendel, an organism receives two forms of genes called ALLELE for a trait, one from each parent. The genotype of a specific gene coding for a trait is represented by each pair of allele for that trait.

Although the genotype of an organism is outwardly invisible i.e. cannot be seen, but it determines the phenotype of that organism i.e. the outward appearance. For example, if a plant receives T and T alleles coding for tallness, from each parent. The genotype of that plant for the specific height trait will be (TT). Hence, the TT genotype although invisible but controls the tallness of the plant.

uhm i have 5 questions due in an hour so please help. It's 45 points and they're all abt biology btw~
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

the point of science is to disprove hypothesis so having a hypothesis that doesn't allow that to happen is not good science

2. they don't fit in our mouths so are a trait from when we had larger jaws

3. bones of your lower jaw, middle ear and voice box (they aren't actually gills fyi, they just look like them)

4. likely yes as their bones were hollow but likely only able to fly short distances, the thought was that they couldn't do their size and weight but with hollow bones they were able to like a quail would

5. no because they could be sister taxa, you would have a hard time proving exactly that this new fossil is the common ancestor that birds came from to replace the old hypothesis (guess) of which one did.

For each moleule of glucose that is metabolized by glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, what is the total number of NADH + FADH
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The answer is B- 12

Explanation:

The glycolysis of one glucose molecule produces two acetyl CoA molecules, the reactions in the glycolytic pathway and citric acid cycle produce six CO2 molecules, ten (10) NADH molecules, and two (2) FADH2 molecules per glucose molecule. Therefore the total number of NADH + FADH2 molecules produced is 12.
