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

1 answer:

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.

Genetic variation in a population increases the populations chance of survival if the environment changes . True or false

Black_prince [1.1K]

TRUE

Genetic diversity serves as a way for populations to adapt to changing environments. With more variation, it is more likely that some individuals in a population will possess variations of alleles that are suited for the environment. Those individuals are more likely to survive to produce offspring bearing that allele.
