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.

Which of the following describes an allele whose characteristic phenotype is masked by the presence of a second, different allel
brilliants [131]
The allele that can mask the presence of another allele is called dominant. The allele that is masked is recessive and if both alleles can be detected in the phenotype, then they are codominant. If they produce an intermediate phenotype like pink instead of red or white, then they have a relationship of incomplete dominance.

What role do stomata play in homeostasis
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Homeostasis. Angiosperms or flowering plants maintain homeostasis by keeping their stomata (opening in the underside of a leaf that allows carbon dioxide to diffuse into and out of the leaf) open just enough to allow photosynthesis to take place but not so much that they lose an excessive amount of water.
