Answer:

Increasing

Explanation:

This particular question or problem can be likened to a deductive reasoning. The viral disease known as HIV stand for Human Immunodeficiency Virus which is a disease that damages the immune system of anyone affected with the disease. The Human Immunodeficiency Virus goes through four main stages or steps that is to say the infection stage/step, the stages in which the symptoms does not show, the stages at which the symptoms start to show and the stage at which the Human Immunodeficiency Virus goes or turns to AIDS.

The frequencies of these "resistance genes" In human populations where HIV infection is common will increase. When Human Immunodeficiency Virus infection is common, people in  that particular society will develop more resistance to the virus and the survival of the fittest is taken into account as people with more resistance tends to be more healthier than the ones with less resistance.

The Celsius temperature scale is also something called the centigrade scale. Why is this?
valentinak56 [21]
There are three temperature scales in use today, Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin.

Fahrenheit temperature scale is a scale based on 32 for the freezing point of water and 212 for the boiling point of water, the interval between the two being divided into 180 parts. The 18th-century German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit originally took as the zero of his scale the temperature of an equal ice-salt mixture and selected the values of 30 and 90 for the freezing point of water and normal body temperature, respectively; these later were revised to 32 and 96, but the final scale required an adjustment to 98.6 for the latter value.

Until the 1970s the Fahrenheit temperature scale was in general common use in English-speaking countries; the Celsius, or centigrade, scale was employed in most other countries and for scientific purposes worldwide. Since that time, however, most English-speaking countries have officially adopted the Celsius scale. The conversion formula for a temperature that is expressed on the Celsius (C) scale to its Fahrenheit (F) representation is: F = 9/5C + 32.


Hope this helps.
