Answer:

Explanation:Normally, reducing food supplies would favor animals with smaller bodies because they don't need as much food to survive. On the Galapagos Islands, however, only large seeds are available during the drought. Small-beaked finches are not able to access this food supply, so they are more likely to starve. Many of the large-beaked finches are likely to die as well, but some will be able to live on a hard-seed diet. As these finches survive and produce offspring, the average beak depth increases.

A client with suspected human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has had two positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) tests.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Western blot should be performed

Explanation:

Generally ELISA test is sensitive to elevated antibodies levels in the blood. Because HIV infection is characterise with increases in antibodies levels(HIV-antibodies levels)of the body, it is usually the first screening test for HIV,however it is also sensitive to elevated antibody from any other infection apart from HIV. Therefore for confirmation, the procedure is to run a second ELISA test, to determine if the antibody rise was due to HIV or not. If the second test turns positive, then Western blot can be applied.

The Western blot through secondary and primary antibodies binding , separates the investigating antibodies, and identity the specif HIV antibodies present to give a positive HIV-antibody, confirming ELISA positive test.

Thus for confirmation of HIV specific antibodies of the blood; ELISA test followed by Western blot is ideal
