If a person is hiv positive, why does he or she need to eat 10% more calories than do his or her noninfected counterparts

Biology

Ugo [173]3 years ago

<span>These extra calories are needed by people with HIV because their immune system is constantly fighting off the HIV virus. This is because HIV attempts to evade the infection even as the immune system attempts to eradicate it. The  extra calories give the immune cells, which are extra strained, the energy to perform their functions.</span>

Fossil fuels are normally stored in a reservoir deep in the Earth. The carbon in fossil fuels, including coal and oil, are essen
ASHA 777 [7]
One risk for accessing carbon from the ground is that it may cause soil contamination. Soil when exposed to large amount of gases and other organically decaying materials can absorb these into their make-up. Fossil fuels are extracted from the ground through drilling processes. When the drilling is unsuccessful, pockets created within the soil can create areas for contamination. When soil is contaminated by fossil fuels, it can no longer be use for agricultural purposes.

A pure breeding tall pea plant was crossed to dwarf plant. What will be frequency of dwarf plants in F2?
Temka [501]

Tall pea plant was crossed to dwarf plant. The frequency of dwarf plants in F2 will be 0%.

  • A true breeding pea plant is one that, after self-fertilization, only bears offspring with the same traits.
  • True breeding organisms are those that share the same genes for the desired traits and are genetically comparable.
  • These animals possess homozygous alleles. If the alleles are distinct, only one of the gene's alleles—referred to as the dominant gene—will be expressed.
  • The other allele, referred to as the recessive one, has no effect.

According to the given cross:

                                  TT  X  tt   (parents)

                                 Tt Tt Tt Tt  (offspring) all tall

Hence the percentage of dwarf individuals is 0.

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The folds contain ribosomes attached to the membrane. The more the folds the more the surface area to which more ribosomes can attach. The ribosomes are organelles responsible for the manufacture of protein in cells. Thereafter, the proteins are properly folded by the mediation of chaperones in the lumen of the RER.
