<span>HIV medications can help lower your viral load, fight infections, and improve your quality of life. But even if you take them, you can still give HIV to others. They're not a cure for HIV.The goals for these medicines are to:<span>Control the growth of the virusImprove how well your immune system worksSlow or stop symptomsCause as few side effects as possible</span>The FDA has approved more than two dozen antiretroviral drugs to treat HIV infection. They're often broken into six groups because they work in different ways. Doctors recommend taking a combination or "cocktail" of at least two of them. This is called antiretroviral therapy, or ART.Your doctor will let you know specifically how you should take your medications. You need to follow the directions exactly, and you shouldn't miss even one dose. Or you could develop drug-resistant strains of HIV, and your medication may stop working.Some other medicines and supplements don't mix well with HIV drugs, so make sure you tell your doctor about everything you're taking.</span><span>Nucleoside/Nucleotide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTIs)NRTIs force the HIV virus to use faulty versions of building blocks so infected cells can't make more HIV.<span><span>Abacavir, or ABC (Ziagen)</span><span>Didanosine, or ddl (Videx)</span><span>Emtricitabine, or FTC (Emtriva)</span><span>Lamivudine, or 3TC (Epivir)</span><span>Stavudine, or d4T (Zerit)</span><span>Tenofovir, or TDF (Viread)</span><span>Zidovudine, or AZT or ZDV (Retrovir)</span></span></span><span>Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NNRTIs)These are also called "non-nukes." NNRTIs bind to a specific protein so the HIV virus can't make copies of itself, similar to jamming a zipper.<span><span>Delavirdine (Rescriptor)</span><span>Efavirenz (Sustiva)</span><span>Etravirine (Intelence)</span><span>Nevirapine (Viramune)</span>Rilpivirine (Edurant)</span></span><span>Protease Inhibitors (PIs)These drugs block a protein that infected cells need to put together new copies of the HIV virus.

What does a pyramid of net production look like in a real ecosystem, and what are the trophic efficiencies? the pyramid below re
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Idealized pyramid of net production uses the typical values of 1% for the conversion of sunlight energy to net primary production and 10% for trophic efficiency.

Explanation:

in real ecosystems, trophic efficiencies usually vary from about 5% to about 20%. As a result, net production diagrams for ecosystems have a pyramid shape. Two key factors explain why trophic efficiencies are relatively low, and thus why net production diagrams are shaped like pyramids. First, not all the organisms at one trophic level are eaten by organisms at the next trophic level. For example, not every plant is eaten by herbivores, and not every herbivore is eaten by carnivores. Second, because of the bioenergetics of animals, not all the food an animal eats is converted to new biomass.  Significant amounts of energy are lost in feces, used in cellular respiration, and lost to the environment as heat.

How does semi-conservative replication help prevent mutations during DNA replications?
Llana [10]

DNA replication is the process by which two DNA molecules are produced from one parent DNA molecule. DNA replication is semi conservative, this implies that, each strand in the double helix DNA molecule act as a template for the synthesis of a new, complimentary DNA strand. Because semi conservative method has a DNA template that is already accurately formed, the probability of having errors in the newly formed strand is drastically reduced.
