There are choices for this question namely:

<span>a. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
b. T-lymphocyte virus type I
c. Epstein-Barr virus
d. Parvovirus
e. Poxvirus

The correct answers are HIV, T-lymphocyte virus type I, and Epstein-Barr virus. HIV or human immunodefiency virus will predispose the patient in developing Kaposi sarcoma in later stages of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. T-lymphocyte virus type I is believed to be the etiological agent for developing T-cell leukemia or lymphoma. Epstein-Barr virus is associated with both nasopharyngeal carcinoma and Burkitt lymphoma. 

<em>Parvovirus B19 causes a viral exanthem called erythema infectiosum which has no propensity to malignancy. Poxvirus is the etiologic agent for molluscum contagiosum, also with no propensity in developing malignancy. </em>

What are the pros and cons of having the digestion be slower and over distance, as opposed to being quicker and over shorter dis
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Explanation: When you have a slow digestive system, a condition known as gastroparesis or delayed stomach emptying, these muscles don't work properly. They either contact too slowly or don't work at all and, as a result, your stomach doesn't empty properly.

Eating slowly also helps our digestion. Think of digestion as a chain reaction. As soon as we see, smell, or think about food (step 1), we start salivating to prepare for putting that food in our mouth (step 2). Saliva contains enzymes that break the food down, and moistens the mouth for easier swallowing.
