Ten causes of HIV/AIDs with explanation​
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Most people who contract the virus do so by having unprotected s*x with someone who said virus. Other ways are through shared needles- if two people share a drug needle when one has the virus, it can be transferred to the other person. HIV/AIDs could also be transferred from a pregnant mother to her newborn during pregnancy, birth, and/or breastfeeding.

Explanation:

HIV/AIDs does not survive long being outside of their host's body, and it is impossible to be spread through casual contacts such as kissing, hugging, sharing food, sweat, or sharing a drink with an infected person. You can only contract the virus if you are in direct contact with infected blood, semen, or vaginal fluids.

What is the average pulse rate for an adult? 10 70 120 220
seropon [69]
Hey there!

The correct answer to your question is 70.

The average pulse rate for an adult is 70, meaning that the heart usually beats 70 times per minute for an adult. Sometimes when people work out or run, they will have less of a pulse rate, and the pulse rate might decrease but for a short amount of time.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

If Prisoners were mentally ill/drug abusers, do we really want their organs?
allochka39001 [22]
This depends on which organs we're talking about. A mentally ill person or a drug abuser can still have completely healthy lungs, depending on the type of drugs the drug user was taking. The same goes for the heart and other internal organs. If the lifestyle of the mentally ill person or the drug abuser were such that their internal organs suffered, then the answer would be no.
